Final World Cup match in Los Angeles to take place between Belgium and Spain. Here's what to know.

The FIFA World Cup games in Los Angeles are coming to an end on Friday with a quarterfinal match between Belgium and Spain.  

The showdown between the two European countries will bring together both veterans and young newcomers who have already made a name for themselves.

Belgium will be entering Friday's match after eliminating the U.S. Men's Team 4-1. Spain, which has yet to allow a goal in their five tournament matches, is coming in off a victory against Portugal on Monday, 1-0. 

The winner of the game will move on to face France, who recently beat Morocco on Thursday 2-0.

Los Angeles was scheduled to host eight World Cup matches. 

What time is the quarterfinal match?

The match is scheduled to begin at noon.

How to get to the stadium?

The Los Angeles Stadium in Inglewood is accessible by several forms of transportation.

LA Metro and its regional transit partners have been teaming up to run direct nonstop service to every World Cup match.

Metro offers buses, rails and regional transit with direct service to a pick-up location near you. It also offers park-and-ride locations where fans can park their vehicles and take a direct service bus to the stadium.

People can also walk or get dropped off at a direct pick-up location.
