2026 World Cup: Paraguayan Almirón's mouth covering results in first red card

A match between Paraguay and Turkey recorded the first red card in the World Cup for covering the mouth, as Paraguayan player Miguel Almirón was sent off in the 45+3rd minute after speaking with a Turkish player, just before the end of the first half. Almirón became the first player in the tournament's history to be sent off for this reason, after his team scored an early goal in the second minute of the match. FIFA announced in April that players could be sent off for covering their mouths during interactions with opponents. These new guidelines follow an incident in the UEFA Champions League and reflect the evolving rules of conduct in international matches.
