Spain vs. France: Schedule, TV channel, and where to watch today's Nations League semifinal online.
The Spanish national team returns to the scene. And it does so with a title at stake: a Nations League title in which it will defend its crown in Germany. The first step toward achieving that goal comes with a thrilling semifinal against France, a repeat of the match from the same round of last year's European Championship.
Luis de la Fuente 's team arrives after overcoming a tough tie against the Netherlands to secure their place in the Final Four again. A barrage of goals and football saw Spain emerge victorious thanks to a nail-biting penalty shootout at Mestalla.
To achieve this, the coach compiled a list that maintains the same squad that dazzled at the European Championship, with certain nuances: the return of Isco to the squad six years later, without Laporte or Rodri, and with the return of Gavi.
For its part, the French national team, with several players recently crowned European champions with PSG, such as Dembélé and Doué, also struggled to stay in contention for its second Nations League title, and had to go to penalties to beat the always-tough Croatian team.
This is the third time in recent years that Spain and France have met in the final stretch of a continental tournament. In 2021, France beat Spain in the Nations League final (2-1), while the most recent meeting, in the semifinals of the last European Championship, was won by Luis de la Fuente's team (2-1).
The Nations League semi-final between Spain and France will be played this Thursday, June 5, at the Stuttgart Arena at 9:00 p.m. (Spanish time).
