Palmeiras at the Cup: Paraguay trio close after draw with Australia | OneFootball

The World Cup is being played in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and Palmeiras has seven representatives on four different national teams. Verdão’s players are heading into the decisive round for qualification.

Palmeiras captain starts

Gustavo Gómez, captain of Palmeiras and Paraguay, started the match and played all 90 minutes in the 0-0 draw against Australia, once again standing out as one of the best players on the pitch. Mauricio came on at halftime and played 45 minutes.

Ramón Sosa stayed on the bench for the entire match.

Paraguay has still not officially secured qualification after finishing third in Group D. However, only a very complex combination of results would prevent the national team featuring the Palmeiras trio from advancing to the next stage of the World Cup.
