World Cup: Group D: Turkiye vs. Paraguay, 6/19/2026

[NyQuil]

I don't know if Paraguay can sustain 30 more minutes of this.

 

[Live in the Now]

f***ing hell how have they not scored

 

[gary69]

Seems like Turkiye will never score in this match.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Turkiye is intentionally trying not to score.

You cannot tell me this shit isn't rigged @cgf

 

[Summer Rose]

It's not impossible, but highly unlikely given that racial animus doesn't usually exist in a vacuum? What do Paraguayans and Turks have to do with each other? What exactly would you insult in a Turk as a Paraguayan? It's random as hell.

Do you know of any racial slurs for Turks? If you don't, obviously you should assume that there are some. Now, if someone calls a Turk one of those racial slurs, what does it matter what the nationality of the person who said it is?

 

[Shocker]

It feels insane this game is only in the 60th minute, feels like we've had entertainment for at least a full game already

Older Harry Potter yellow card

 

[koyvoo]

That was a terrible attempt. Yikes.

 

[NyQuil]

Now the manager gets a card.

This match has everything.

 

[Live in the Now]

This ref won’t put up with any shit lmao. Potential disaster the longer this goes.

 

[cgf]

I'm second generation, so they're also American.

But if your question is "which type of Asian" then the answer is Han Chinese.

Ugh you should’ve let me finish the bit…two of my closest friends growing up were also 2nd / 3rd generation and watching them deal with that, as a white immigrant with parents who did have heavy accents, never stopped being bizarre.

 

[Jack Straw]

This ref doesn’t mess around

 

[NyQuil]

The most aggressive card giving ref I've seen in some time.

He charges at them. Like El Toro.

 

[Summer Rose]

To be fair, you do live in Florida, and everyone there is from somewhere else.

The Seminoles would like a word.

 

[Live in the Now]

Great strike there. Only missed by 40 feet.

The most aggressive card giving ref I've seen in some time.

He charges at them. Like El Toro.

 

[Shocker]

The most aggressive card giving ref I've seen in some time.

He charges at them. Like El Toro.

He was so excited to give Almiron the red too, probably went like "YES YES YES" in his mind

 

[NyQuil]

He's miraculously recovered as the stretcher appears on the field.

 

[ViD]

Can’t imagine how frustrating it must be for Turkish fans

 

[Live in the Now]

I can’t think of a worse game to be the fourth ref for. Holy hell this poor guy.

 

[NyQuil]

He was so excited to give Almiron the red too, probably went like "YES YES YES" in his mind

 

[ItsFineImFine]

That's 2.5 hours without a goal for Turkey in the tournament so far.

This ref has some real small man energy. Stop using CONCACAF refs lol just get a bunch of imposing looking men from Eastern Europe.

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

The most aggressive card giving ref I've seen in some time.

He charges at them. Like El Toro.

Barton usually has main character syndrome.

 

[Osprey]

The Seminoles would like a word.

Pfft. Even they're originally from Asia.

Have you ever watched the Turks before? They are the opposite of Scotland. Where the Scots lack talent but get surprisingly good results with great cohesion, the Turks have good talent but are a complete s***show as a team.

That’s why I make so many jokes about them looking like a Jogi Löw team.
