6 - Spain are the first team in FIFA World Cup history to keep six clean sheets at a single edition – the xG figure they faced today against France (0.3) was the lowest by a nation in a semi-final tie in the competition since Brazil vs Sweden in 1994 (0.1). Shutdown.

France down 2-0 first time ever in this World Cup.

Spain take a 2-0 lead near the half hour mark. No answer from France!

Oyarzabal scores from the penalty spot. Spain 1-0 France

Digne was going for the ball. Not sure how this one is a penalty kick. Another controversial call from Barton. Spain might take the lead early

Horrible free kick taken by Spain. This semi final remains 0-0

Referee Barton makes a controversial call just 9 minutes into the match. Free kick outside the French box… Spain has a huge opportunity here

FIFA confirm the World Cup closing ceremony will feature Tom Cruise, Laura Pausini, Nicole Scherzinger, Robbie Williams and IShowSpeed. Jennifer Hudson will perform the United States national anthem ahead of the final.

“I felt we were able to unite the country — that was an aspiration of mine and the team before we set out”: Folarin Balogun, a star striker on the U.S. Men’s National Team, said despite losing to Belgium, it was “a very special feeling” to see Americans backing the country’s soccer stars in the World Cup. Balogun, who was reinstated after receiving a red card during the U.S.’ match against Bosnia and Herzegovina, also told CBS Mornings about how the team dealt with the “outside noise” following that decision.
