The National Football Team lost its chance to advance from the group by losing 1-0 to Paraguay in the second match of Group D of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
WE FELL VICTIM TO A LACK OF FINISHING
The Crescent-Stars, who displayed a productive offensive image in both matches they played, fell victim to a finishing problem. In the group stage, the national team first lost 2-0 to Australia, and despite sending a total of 30 shots towards the Australian goal, they could not find the goal they were looking for.
NO GOAL IN 62 SHOTS
The Crescent-Stars experienced the same problem today against a 10-man Paraguay. Turkey, which put great pressure on the opponent's goal throughout the match, sent a total of 32 shots towards the Paraguay goal. The national team, which tested the goal a total of 62 times in the two matches they played, could not find the goal they were looking for. Our national team, which generously wasted clear opportunities and could not break their bad luck, caused great disappointment by making an early exit from the tournament.
