Players to watch
Iker Bravo
Spain’s captain has been a stellar focal point for Paco Gallardo’s men. A deadly finisher who is able to drop deep and link play, his combination work with Pablo Garcia has been the standout of Spain’s tournament so far.
Neysor Villarreal
The Colombian marksman finally joined the party in the last-16 win over South Africa, netting twice to power his side to this stage for the first time in 14 years. He’s one of several Colombia attackers Spain will need to keep on top of.

20:00 in Santiago
20:00 in Buenos Aires
A clash worthy of the final itself, both Mexico and Argentina have dazzled throughout their time in Chile. After managing an unbeaten group stage, Mexico hammered the hosts with Gilberto Mora continuing to star. Argentina, for their part, are the only team remaining with a 100-per-cent record, and in Alejo Sarco they have one of the competition’s deadliest marksmen.
Players to watch
Iker Fimbres
One of many Mexicans who impressed in their rout of Chile last time out, the tireless midfielder ran the show and scored a terrific goal to put the game to bed.
Dylan Gorosito
This flying full-back has three assists to his name and scored a stunning solo goal to take them to victory over Italy.
