Spain booked their place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 final with a composed 2-0 victory over France in a tense semifinal on Wednesday. However, one of the biggest talking points of the match came in the closing moments when France captain Kylian Mbappe appeared to catch Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon in the face with his elbow while attempting to challenge for the ball.
A police officer was injured and four people were arrested after clashes erupted between football fans and police in central London following Morocco's 2-0 defeat to France in the FIFA World Cup 2026 quarter-finals.
