Greece vs Paraguay

Paraguay claimed a 1-0 victory over Greece in an international friendly at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium on Thursday evening. Diego Gómez struck the only goal of the game early in the second half, punishing a Greek side that dominated possession but lacked a cutting edge. Greece set up in a 4-2-3-1 and controlled the ball for long stretches, with Christos Tzolis and Anastasios Bakasetas pulling the strings in attack. But for all their territory, the hosts struggled to test the Paraguayan goalkeeper, failing to carve out clear-cut chances. The decisive moment came in the 52nd minute when Gómez converted from a set-piece situation to give Paraguay the lead. Julio Enciso looked lively on the counter throughout, and the visitors defended with discipline to see out the result comfortably. It is a frustrating night for Greece as they prepare for the months ahead, while Paraguay will take real confidence from a professional away performance in Europe.
