Türkiye eliminated from World Cup after defeat to Paraguay

Summary

Türkiye was eliminated from the World Cup following a 1-0 loss to Paraguay at San Francisco Bay Stadium on June 20, 2026. Matías Galaza scored just 64 seconds into the match, marking the fastest goal of the tournament. Despite being a man up after Miguel Almirón's red card for a new rule infraction, Türkiye failed to capitalize, missing multiple opportunities, including a shot that hit both the crossbar and post. The loss leaves Türkiye without a goal in the tournament and sets up Paraguay for a crucial match against Australia for a chance to progress.
