Spain opened the scoring in the first half through Mikel Oyarzabal from the penalty spot before Pedro Porro doubled the lead after the break. Despite France's attacking lineup led by Kylian Mbappé, Spain remained composed throughout the match, controlling possession and keeping another clean sheet.
The victory extends Spain's impressive unbeaten run and sends the European giants into the FIFA World Cup Final, where they will face the winner of the England vs. Argentina semifinal. France will now compete in the tournament's third-place playoff.
