France and Spain meet in the FIFA World Cup 2026 semi-final, where France concede the first goal after falling behind for the first time in the tournament. Multiple reports highlight that the moment comes after a France error, described as a “huge blunder,” which allows Spain to take the lead. The goal is scored by Mikel Oyarzabal, giving Spain an advantage during the match.
Both sources note the broader context: it is the first time Kylian Mbappé’s France are trailing in a FIFA World Cup 2026 match. The semi-final setting against Spain adds significance, with France having been the 2018 World Cup champions. The reports focus on the decisive swing created by the France mistake and the resulting Spain goal, without adding further match details such as final score, timing, or subsequent events.
