Tonight’s semifinal game between France and Spain pits two of the EU’s biggest nations against each other for a chance to win the World Cup. It also comes on France’s national day, after celebrations and a military parade in Paris attended by world leaders.
In Brussels, the country’s diplomatic mission is hosting a celebration marking the event, which will double as a soccer screening. POLITICO will be there to bring you a snapshot from the party. Whether les Bleus come out on top and the French end the day in a frenzy of national pride — or are left deflated by Spain’s La Roja — will become clear before midnight in Brussels.
