Les Bleus have sparkled in North America this summer, yet it was their more measured performance against Morocco that most convincingly affirmed the belief that Didier Deschamps’ stellar tenure will end with one final success.
Spain, though, is capable of stymying Les Bleus by keeping the ball away from their attacking superstars. The first World Cup goal La Roja conceded didn’t arrive until the quarterfinals, where another late Mikel Merino strike prevented an extra 30 minutes of toil.
We’re poised for an enthralling Texan tussle, with a clash of styles rendering the bout all the more intriguing. Will it be French freedom or Spain’s collective brilliance that wins out?
Here’s how to tune into the action from home.
