France:
"L'Équipe": "Red eyes. Spain ends the adventure of the Tricolore Team! La Roja led at halftime thanks to the goals from Yamal and Olmo within four minutes and qualified for the European Championship final with a controlled second half. Tchouaméni and Mbappé failed against the Spanish goalkeeper."
