Friday, July 10 wrap — Merino decisive again as a Courtois injury tips the quarter-final
Spain join France in the last four, edging Belgium 2-1 in Los Angeles. Held for a long time, La Roja finally broke through after Thibaut Courtois limped off in tears: on 88 minutes, Mikel Merino pounced again, just as he had against Portugal four days earlier. The semi-final is set: France-Spain, Tuesday in Arlington, with Saliba up against the Spain Gunners.
