World Cup 2026: Turkey crash out after 1-0 defeat to ten-man Paraguay

After a pair of disallowed goals from Raphinha, Brazil finally broke through in the 23rd minute when Vinicius Jr.'s shot was spilled by goalkeeper Johnny Placide and Matheus Cunha tapped home the rebound.

Midfielder Matias Galarza wound up from 25 metres (27 yards) and fired a ‌low rocket home after 64 seconds on Friday evening to eclipse Ismael Saibari’s 71-second strike in Morocco’s 1-0 win over Scotland hours before.

But goalkeeper Orlando Gill made several key saves to preserve the lead.

The United States continued to be the host with the most as they overcame Australia with a routine 2-0 win, notching their fifth and sixth goals in just two games and topping Group D with a game to spare.
