Türkiye 0 - 1 Paraguay
FULL-TIME!
The final whistle blows at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium!
Ten-man Paraguay show incredible resilience to defeat a wasteful Turkiye 1-0.
This result knocks Turkiye out of the World Cup with a game to spare, while Paraguay now have a strong chance to advance to the Round of 32.
Paraguay got off to a dream start, with Enciso's flick-on setting up Galarza for a left-footed strike into the bottom-right corner just 65 seconds in.
Turkiye nearly equalized, but Muldur's towering header rattled the woodwork before hitting the upright.
Paraguay then went down to 10 men in the third minute of first-half stoppage time after a VAR review led to Almiron receiving a red card for covering his mouth while speaking to Muldur.
Three minutes after the break, Yildiz came close for Turkiye, but the attacker hit the side netting from a tight angle.
Enciso almost doubled Paraguay's lead, gliding in from the right before dragging his shot wide of the left post.
Later, an unmarked Gul headed straight into the hands of a relieved Gill.
Montella's side nearly found an 89th-minute equalizer, but Gill brilliantly denied Uzun's 18-yard attempt, and Gul missed the rebound from close range.
Turkiye had one last chance to keep their World Cup hopes alive in second-half stoppage time, but Demiral could only head Guler's left-wing cross inches past the right post.
Turkiye registered 32 shots with five on target and an xG of 2.10, while Paraguay had seven shots with two on target and an xG of 0.32.
