Spain are through to the World Cup final, and they got there by making France look strangely ordinary. A two-nil win in Arlington, goals from Mikel Oyarzabal and Pedro Porro, and a performance that felt controlled from the first whistle. France had Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele and all the usual big-game ingredients, but Spain kept finding the spare man and kept France running in the wrong direction. That is the main story for this Wednesday edition of The Full Time Report. We will get into what Spain did to win that semi-final, what Mbappe said afterwards about the shape of the match, and why this feels like another important step in Lamine Yamal's very short but already ridiculous international career. Then we turn to England against Argentina. Thomas Tuchel is trying to keep the history out of the room, even while admitting that this fixture is too famous to pretend it is just another game.
