Spain into World Cup final after dominant victory over France

Saturday's World Cup third-place play-off between England and France and Sunday's World Cup final will both be shown live on BBC TV.

England lost 2-1 to Argentina in dramatic fashion in Wednesday's semi-final a day after France were beaten 2-0 by Spain in their last-four tie.

Saturday's match, which is now known as the bronze final, will kick off at 22:00 BST.

Argentina will face Spain in the final a day later, with a 20:00 BST kick-off.

Both matches will be shown live on BBC One and BBC iPlayer - and there will be live commentary on BBC Radio 5 Live. ITV will also broadcast the final live.

The BBC Sport website will have the TV and radio coverage for both matches, plus live text commentary and in-game highlights.

Both games will also be available in ultra high definition (UHD).
