Get ready for a big night of football. The first semi-final of the 2026 FIFA World Cup is here, and you can watch it live on DStv and GOtv.
France will play Spain today, Tuesday, July 14, at Dallas Stadium in Texas, USA. Kick-off is at 3pm Eastern Time (2pm local time in Dallas).
Fans in different time zones should check their local start time, since the match kicks off in the afternoon in the US, not late at night.
This is one of the biggest matches of the tournament. France and Spain are the top two ranked teams in the world right now.
It is the first time the top four FIFA-ranked teams have all reached the World Cup semi-finals. Spain is looking to reach the final for the first time since they won the trophy in 2010.
France has been in strong form, scoring 16 goals so far, the most of any team in this World Cup. Kylian Mbappe leads the attack with eight goals.
Spain, on the other hand, has built its run on a tough defence.
The team has faced only seven shots on target in six matches. Aymeric Laporte, Unai Simon, and Rodri have led that defence well.
The winner of this match will move on to face the winner of the other semi-final between England and Argentina, which will be played on Wednesday, July 15, in Atlanta.
The final of the 2026 World Cup will be played on Sunday, July 19.
