World champions France squeezed into the semifinals of Euro 2000 on Sunday with a 2-1 victory over Spain after Raul missed a last minute penalty for the Spaniards. Zidane gave France the lead with a perfectly placed direct free kick in the 32nd minute but Gaizka Mendieta equalised from a penalty six minutes later. Youri Djorkaeff scored the eventual winner a minute from halftime with a thunderous shot from inside the box after being played through by Patrick Vieira. With Mendieta substituted, Raul took Spain's second penalty in the 90th minute but blazed it over the bar. France will meet Portugal in Wednesday's semifinal in Brussels.
