Turkey v Paraguay: World Cup 2026 – live

Turkey face Paraguay in a 2026 World Cup match, with kick-off scheduled for 8pm local time (4am BST). A notable selection surprise sees attacker Isidro Pitta, nicknamed 'Viking' for his long hair and ginger beard, start for Paraguay despite having already booked a family holiday to Spain, so confident was he of missing the squad. Pitta, who plays for Red Bull Bragantino, has been described as a tireless and combative forward in recent form.
