@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidOdds are pretty good that is what will happen, but can't count our chickens until the hatch. 😉
To make the semi final is a glorious thing. Would be no shame in losing to Argentina, France or Spain. All great teams.

I don't know as much about the game as you do, but they both look like tough Teams, I have watched both play against other Teams.

Of course anything can happen.
So if Spain goes into lead, they stand a very good chance to keep it. They do have the best defense.
If France scores eraly it could occur that in their rushh to make the second goal they run into a counter attack and Spain can equalize.
But that is always the case with predictions in sports.

So not an easy call to make, which I had assumed.

@diver saidThey looked way off it.
France get away with Mbape forearming the Spain goalkeeper in the head as they are about to be dumped out of the tournament 2-0 after a very poor performance.

@Earl-of-Trumps saidI’m calling that also; but it’s going to be blood and guts with at least one red card.
I'm calling for an England win tomorrow, Good luck, all around.,
England v Spain in the final is a repeat of the Euros final two years ago and a mouthwatering prospect.
@diver saidYes, now England have Anthony Gordon they'll kick Spain off the park for sure.

Spain have to be big favourites against England or Argentina but anything can happen. Hopefully Spain concede an early goal, make the game interesting. The Belgium Spain game was good, the other time I watched Spain was 😴
