Turkey 0-1 Paraguay Player Ratings as Enciso Sparkles With 8.6/10 Performance

Summary
It all ends here for head coach Vincenzo Montella and Turkish football fans as they are officially out of the 2026 FIFA World Cup following a 0-1 loss against a determined Paraguay at the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium in Santa Clara, California, United States on Saturday. The fastest goal of the 2026 FIFA World Cup scored by Matias Galarza gave coach Gustavo Alfaro and his men the three points despite late flurry of chances for Turkey.
Controversy was at hand for Paraguay when star player Miguel Almiron was sent off for covering his mouth during a confrontation with Turkey player Muldur following a VAR intervention in first-half stoppage time.
The result sees Paraguay move up to third spot as they now gear up to face Australia in their next game of the 2026 FIFA World Cup which is scheduled to take place in United States, Canada and Mexico.
