T\u00fcrkiye will face off against Paraguay at the 2026 FIFA World Cup on Friday, June 19, 2026. The Group D clash will kick off at 11:00 PM ET at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium on FS1.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Both nations lost their openers by multiple goals, and either could be eliminated with a loss on Friday.<\/p>\n
T\u00fcrkiye would be eliminated with a loss and a U.S. win or draw, while Paraguay would be eliminated with a loss and an Australia win or draw.<\/p>\n
T\u00fcrkiye was upset by Australia in its opener, losing 2-0 in a match in which it controlled 71% of possession and outshot Australia 30-9. T\u00fcrkiye took the most shots by any team without scoring in a World Cup match since Portugal had 31 in the 2006 quarterfinals against England.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, after not conceding more than two total goals in any of 18 CONMEBOL qualifiers, Paraguay gave up three first-half goals in a 4-1 loss to the United States.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The only bit of good news that came out of its opening match was that Julio Enciso, who was stretchered off during the final tune-up match against Nicaragua, played the full 90 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
