France vs Spain Live Streaming, FIFA World Cup 2026 Semifinal: The road to the FIFA World Cup 2026 final is down to four teams, and the first semifinal promises to be a blockbuster. France and Spain, two former world champions, will battle for a place in the final at Dallas Stadium on Wednesday (July 15) as per Indian Standard Time (IST). Here’s everything you need to know about the match, including kick-off time, live streaming, TV broadcast, and where fans in India can watch it for free.
France vs Spain Set for a High-Stakes World Cup Semifinal
There aren’t many bigger fixtures in international football than France vs Spain, especially with a World Cup final spot on the line.
France have looked unstoppable throughout the tournament, powered by an attack that has consistently delivered when it mattered most. Kylian Mbappe has been one of the standout performers of the World Cup, scoring eight goals so far. Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembele has added five goals, while Michael Olise has been equally influential, leading the tournament’s assist charts with five assists.
Spain, meanwhile, have built their campaign on defensive discipline. The 2010 champions have conceded just one goal in six matches, underlining why they are considered one of the toughest teams to break down. Their only goal conceded came during a 2-1 quarterfinal victory over Belgium.
With France’s attacking firepower going up against Spain’s rock-solid defence, the semifinal has all the ingredients of a classic World Cup contest.

Spain Chasing a Rare World Cup Defensive Record
Spain are not just chasing another World Cup title—they are also on the verge of making history.
If La Roja manage to lift the trophy without conceding another goal, they will equal one of the most remarkable defensive records in FIFA World Cup history. Interestingly, Spain themselves achieved that feat during their historic 2010 World Cup-winning campaign.
That defensive consistency could once again prove to be their biggest weapon against a French side filled with world-class attacking talent.
