Rodri and Ruiz been excellent France been so poor given the embarrassment of riches at top end of pitch have created next to nothing.

Spain to need to keep playing. Some moments of danger when they started rltaking their foot off the gas.

France very poor. I took them over Spain to beat England if it came to the crunch.

France havenNt turned up, Spain look very good.

Surely a kick in the French yet or will they go out with a whimper?

Me too. Have to hope between the Argies and the Spaniards they get the job done.

Spain a better all round team so maybe better that France don't go through. Tchouaméni and Rabiot very poor, as well as Digne. Let's hope the Argies do the business tomorrow.

That was the moment Doue. Awful attempt

If England win their midfield will be bossed by Spain. England's midfield not near this level.

No fight in that French team at all.

Spain have been good. Fancied the French to win but Spain have made them look ordinary.

Spain into the final having conceded just one goal in this World Cup, not the most entertaining team to watch or have the star quality they had in 2010 but they are such well organised unit and France with a good forward line ran out ideas long before the final whistle tonight. 
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

For 75/80 minutes you'd be hard pushed to find a better midfield performance since Barca golden days.

Cucurella fantastic on a yellow card too.

Brilliant. Poked one away from Mbappe as he went to pull the trigger. Hopefully they can repeat in the final.

That was an epic performance at just the right time. Watched it in a fan park in Spain and the atmosphere was class.
