Spain book blockbuster semi-final with France after more Merino heroics

Spain booked a blockbuster semi-final meeting with France after beating Belgium 2-1 thanks to last-gasp specialist Mikel Merino in Los Angeles.

The substitute arrived in the 88th minute to pounce on an error from stand-in goalkeeper Senne Lammens, who was a late introduction himself after an emotional Thibaut Courtois was forced off injured, turning home the rebound from Pau Cubarsi's opportunistic strike.
