Paraguay’s historic qualification for the Round of 16 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, after eliminating Germany on penalties this Monday (29), caused a stir on social media.
The “union” between Brazilians and Paraguayans was the main highlight of the posts.
The lingering resentment toward Germany because of the forever 7-1 was also very present.
And, of course, the fact that Brazil remains the ONLY country with five world titles—since Germany and Italy (which didn’t even qualify for the World Cup) will have to wait at least another four years to try to match that—was used in the jokes.
