OUTCOME
PARTIALLY TRUEThe first part of Nick Wright's prediction was correct: France defeated Morocco 2-0 in the quarterfinals (Round of 8) on July 9, 2026. However, the second part was wrong — Spain did NOT lose to France in the semifinals; instead, Spain beat France 2-0 on July 14, 2026, with goals from Oyarzabal and Porro, eliminating France and advancing to the World Cup final.
