What a start from Paraguay! Just 64 seconds on the clock and Galarza has fired La Albirroja into the lead with a stunning strike. Turkey lose possession in midfield, Paraguay break forward instantly, and Galarza takes full advantage, drilling a low left-footed effort beyond Çakır and in off the post. The goalkeeper had no chance as the shot kissed the upright before nestling in the net. It's a magnificent finish and officially the fastest goal of the FIFA World Cup 2026 so far. Turkey's nightmare start leaves their qualification hopes hanging by a thread.
