The match played at the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium started favorably for Paraguay, which opened the scoring in the 2nd minute through Galarza, with a powerful shot that surprised Turkish goalkeeper Cakir.


Turkey, coached by Vincenzo Montella, tried to come back, but the chances of Arda Guler and Muldur did not materialize. The biggest opportunity of the first half came in the 35th minute when Muldur hit the crossbar after a free kick taken by Hakan Calhanoglu. The end of the first half was marked by the dismissal of Miguel Almiron in the 45+3 minute for unsportsmanlike behavior, according to the new FIFA rules.


In the second half, Turkey dominated, having one more player, but missed important chances, including a monumental opportunity in the 89th minute when Gul wasted a chance from a few meters. Paraguay held on and secured a crucial victory, remaining in the qualification race, while Turkey, after consecutive defeats, is eliminated from the competition.
