Turkey - Paraguay Match: What Happened?

Turkey - Paraguay Match: What Happened?

In the critical match played at the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium, Türkiye started the game 1-0 down. Paraguay took the lead with a goal scored by Matías Galarza in just the 2nd minute.

In the final seconds of the first half (45th minute), Paraguayan Miguel Almirón received a red card, leaving his team with 10 men. Despite the opponent playing one man down, Türkiye could not capitalize on the great opportunities they created in the remainder of the match.

In particular, Mert Müldür's header that bounced off the crossbar, and the chances created by Arda Güler and Hakan Çalhanoğlu were not enough to change the score. The match ended with a 1-0 Paraguay victory.

Yes, unfortunately, our National Football Team bid farewell to the 2026 FIFA World Cup at the group stage.

Will Turkey Play a Match Against the USA?

Yes, this match will be played according to the fixture. However, the National Team, which has completely lost the chance to advance from the group, will only play their last group match against the host USA for prestige. This match will be our national team's closing match in the 2026 World Cup.
