Guillem Balague, Spanish journalist:
Spain - the champion team.
France - the champion subordinate and the astir frightening attack.
Argentina - the champion idea: doing much with little than anyone else.
England - 2 world-class players connected form.
All 4 semi-finalists person what is needed to triumph the tournament.
If Spain instrumentality the shot disconnected France and halt their counters - positive if they are much businesslike than they person been - they person a precise bully accidental of making it to the final.
But they person to play the cleanable game, with the cleanable (or a precise good) Lamine Yamal.
Argentina volition effort to marque the crippled against England uneventful, and past hold for a infinitesimal of brilliance from Lionel Messi oregon Julian Alvarez. But they person been playing with fire.
England are inactive trying to find their individuality but they person a immense magnitude of property and 2 world-class stars.
A last of Spain v England would beryllium incredible. And successful a mode a win-win for me, but I would similar England to triumph a World Cup soon. This could beryllium the summer.
Spanish fans successful the United States:
Lionel: France volition beryllium pugnacious but I deliberation we tin bushed them and, if we do, we person a beardown chance. We are beardown successful onslaught and beardown successful defence. The lone downside is Pedri hasn't played astatine this apical level yet.
Jack: Argentina are looking beardown but England can't beryllium ruled out. They person Harry Kane, who is 1 of the astir hard strikers successful the world.
Michel: Spain volition triumph the tournament, I person nary doubt. No 1 is giving america a accidental against France but we volition power the lucifer and bushed them. The winners of that crippled volition triumph the tournament.
