The Paraguay national football team is ready for its second appearance in the 2026 World Cup, which will be in the early minutes of this Saturday against Turkey, at the Bay of San Francisco Stadium. The Albirroja comes from a tough loss to the United States, but is ready to turn the page and regain ground in the tournament. The history indicates that the Guaraní team has a 45.83% effectiveness in its second presentations in the World Cup editions in which it participated. In its 8 previous participations in the World Cup, Paraguay achieved 3 wins, 3 losses and 2 draws in its second match. Going back in time, the closest precedent was in South Africa 2010, when it won 2-0 against Slovakia with goals from Enrique Vera and Cristian Riveros. The Paraguayan team played 8 games in its second presentations in the World Cups, won 3 times, lost by the same amount and achieved 2 draws. It scored 8 goals and conceded 9, reaching 45.83% effectiveness. This Saturday, July 20, it will face Turkey in a key match for its classification. But the Albirroja must improve its performance if it wants to advance in the tournament. So, the question is, can the Paraguay national football team turn the page and regain ground in the World Cup?
