Match Timeline

Events & Discipline

    USA's press shut Paraguay out from the first whistle. A 7th-minute own goal from Bobadilla, immediately after Paraguay's first booking (Cáceres, 9'), set the tone. Balogun added clinical finishes at 31' and 45+5' as the hosts went in three goals to the good. Paraguay's yellow-card count climbed throughout — Almiron (53'), Adams (59'), Diego Gómez (79') — while substitute Mauricio gave the scoreline brief respectability at 73'. Reyna, on since the 82nd minute, finished it off in the 90th minute. Paraguay's final bookings for Arce (88') and Alonso (90') underlined a frustrated second-half display.
