2026 FIFA WC Q: Brazil, Argentina stunned in CONMEBOL qualifiers

Date:

A star-studded Brazil side were stunned in Asuncion by Paraguay in the CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifiers on Tuesday.

Brighton and Hove Albion target Diego Gomez netted the game’s only goal with a long-range strike just 20 minutes into the encounter against Brazil.

The Brazilians are now fifth on the qualifying standings after the setback as rivals Argentina, Uruguay, and Colombia top the group.

In Baranquilla, Colombia avenged their Copa America final defeat to Argentina with a 2-1 victory over them.

James Rodriguez and Yerson Mosquera scored for the Colombians despite Nico Gonzalez pulling one back for the defending World Champions.
