The team of Paraguay set an unbeatable advantage in the 1/8 final match of the World Cup 2026 against France. The team completed the World Cup match without a yellow or red card for the first time since 1998.

The country was similarly persecuted at the World Championships against France, when the Paraguayans beat Nigeria in the group stage, without facing the same disciplinary punishment.

Tsikavo, it is important for the French to call it calm. The All-American team acted even more aggressively, especially against Kylian Mbappe, who more than once suffered from the brutal tackles and power moves of their superniks.

One of the most important episodes occurred after Andres Cubas fouled the France forward. According to him, Mbappe also played rudely against his opponent, which led to a brief dispute between the players. At the same time, the head referee decided not to punish those involved in the incident with cards.

Guess what, the French national team achieved a minimal victory with a 1:0 draw and made it to the quarterfinals of the world championship.
