I Back France To Win, But I'd Be Happy If Spain Become Champions: Fernandez
FIFA World Cup: Former French defender Luis Fernandez has backed France to win the FIFA World Cup 2026 title but stressed that if Spain knocks the Les Blues out, "he'd be happy for them too."
Spain and France will lock horns in the semifinal at the Dallas Stadium on Wednesday. The two teams will face each other for the second time in the final stages of the World Cup after the round of 16 won by Les Bleus (3-1) in 2006.
Born in southern Spain but raised in France, the 66-year-old still feels closely connected to both countries, which gives him a particularly fascinating perspective on the upcoming clash between the two heavyweights.
