Paraguay first affected by new FIFA rules

Paraguay's national team made a strong impact during the 2026 World Cup as the first team to be subjected to a series of new regulations approved by FIFA, which include rules related to representation, identity verification, and covering the mouth. Additionally, a temporary one-minute suspension was enforced during celebrations. This led to their victory over Turkey with a 1-0 score and maintained their hopes of qualifying, while the Turkish team officially bid farewell to the tournament. The match also witnessed a historic incident where a player was sent off after placing his hand over his mouth while talking to another player, in an effort by FIFA to reduce misconduct on the field.
