📊 AI-generated recap and structured data
Paraguay took the points in Qatar with a 1-0 victory over Türkiye in World Cup 2026 qualifying. Our model favored a Türkiye win at 53% probability, but the pick did not land. Türkiye managed no goals despite the home advantage, extending a run without a win across their last five matches. Paraguay's clinical finish proved the difference in a tight contest. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
The result moved Paraguay to second in the group standings with a 1-0 advantage over Türkiye, who dropped to fourth.
