Paraguay Stuns Germany in Penalty Thriller | Providence News

Paraguay stunned the world by defeating Germany 4-3 in a nerve-wracking penalty shootout, ending Germany’s six-match penalty shootout winning streak and sending Paraguay to the quarterfinals. Jose Canale’s decisive kick and Orlando Gill’s two crucial saves sealed the upset, while Germany’s four-time champion pedigree crumbled under pressure. After a tense 1-1 draw through extra time — including a disallowed German goal — Paraguay’s redemption arc, fueled by a first-half header from Julio Enciso and a resilient defense, has them facing France or Sweden next. This historic win not only avenges their 2002 loss to Germany but proves that in football, miracles can happen on any given day.
