World Cup 2026: Ten-man Paraguay secure crucial 1-0 win over Turkey

Paraguay secured a hard-fought 1-0 win over Turkey on Friday (Jun 19) despite playing more than half the match with 10 men. Miguel Almiron was sent off in first-half stoppage time for putting his hand over his mouth during a confrontation with Turkey's Mert Muldur, becoming the first player dismissed under the tournament's new conduct rules.

Matias Galarza's long-range strike just 64 seconds into the game proved decisive and set a new record for the fastest goal of the World Cup. #FIFAWorldCup #WeAre26 #mediacorpFIFAWorldCup2026 #WeAreAllFans #football
