Spain vs Belgium Team News & Key Players
Spain: La Roja have been defensively rock-solid, conceding no goals in regulation through the early knockout stages. Lamine Yamal has been outstanding, while midfield anchors Rodri and Pedri dictate the tempo. No major new injuries reported after the Portugal match, though squad rotation and fatigue remain factors in a long tournament run.
