Despite boasting a host of talented strikers, including Lamine Yamal, Spain’s defense is grabbing the headlines ahead of their FIFA World Cup 2026 quarter-final against Belgium in Los Angeles – and you can live stream the game around the world for free.
La Roja kept a sixth consecutive clean sheet in their 1-0 win over Portugal in the round of 16, setting a new World Cup record. Luis de la Fuente’s side are yet to concede at this summer’s tournament, although they may be asking for more from teenage superstar Yamal, who has scored just once. It is the first time Spain have reached the quarter-finals since lifting the trophy in 2010 and they will believe they can emulate that vintage by following up the Euro 2024 title with World Cup glory. Mikel Merino is pushing to start against Belgium after his last-gasp winner exposed Portugal, while Nico Williams could be closer to playing after a groin problem.
Belgium certainly had an eventful knockout stage, producing an incredible comeback to beat Senegal 3-2 before beating co-hosts USA 4-1 in a round of 16 overshadowed by FIFA’s decision to suspend USMNT forward Folarin Balogun’s red card. Manager Rudi Garcia would have been delighted to see striker Charles De Ketelaere finally get off the mark this summer, while Romelu Lukaku scored his third goal of the tournament from the bench. The only sour note was an ACL injury to midfielder Amadou Onana that will rule him out for a significant period.
