France are just one game away from advancing to a third consecutive FIFA WC final, but in Spain they face the reigning European champions and a side also in impressive form.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Didier Deschamps\u2019 side sauntered through the group stage with three consecutive wins against Senegal, Iraq and Norway, before making equally short work of Sweden in the Round of 32. Les Bleus then showed a different side to their game as they disposed of a stubborn Paraguay in the Round of 16, following up with another authoritative display to eliminate Morocco in the quarter-finals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
On the other hand, after being held to a shock scoreless draw by Cabo Verde in their Group H opener, Spain have gradually found their groove in North America, progressing in first place by defeating Saudi Arabia and Uruguay and then sweeping past Austria in the Round of 32. Late goals were the order of the day in the Round of 16 and quarter-finals, as Mikel Merino came off the bench to dispose of first Portugal and then Belgium.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
