The nation holds its collective breath as the BBC prepares to broadcast two of the most anticipated matches of the World Cup so far - England's third-place play-off against France on Saturday, followed by the thrilling finale between Argentina and Spain on Sunday. The drama began on Wednesday when England's semi-final hopes were crushed in a 2-1 defeat to the formidable Argentinians, just 24 hours after France suffered a similar fate at the hands of Spain.
The bronze medal showdown will be a high-stakes encounter, with England and France both desperate to salvage something from their disappointing campaigns. The teams will clash under the lights at 22:00 BST on Saturday, live on BBC One and available for streaming via BBC iPlayer.
But it's not just about England - Sunday's final is shaping up to be an absolute blockbuster, with Lionel Messi's Argentina set to take on a Spanish side firing on all cylinders. The grand finale kicks off at 20:00 BST, and the BBC will have it covered in style, with live commentary on Radio 5 Live and comprehensive coverage on its website.
The BBC Sport website is gearing up for an epic weekend of football, with live text commentary, in-game highlights, and access to TV and radio feeds all available. And for those with compatible setups, both matches will be broadcast in ultra high definition (UHD) - the ultimate viewing experience.
