The must-see story of the night Zero, zilch, nothing, nada... of these two historic European football nations, neither will make it to the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup. Whether it was Germany being too wasteful against a stubborn Paraguay, or the Netherlands being too cautious against a Morocco side that did everything to deserve qualification, the outcome was the same: elimination on penalties. These two defeats symbolize the decline of these major European nations, but above all the progress of the other confederations, especially CAF, which already has a representative in the next round.

Image of the night It was the moment that moved the whole world. Mourning the loss of his child following his wife's miscarriage a few days ago, Cody Gakpo still insisted on playing this round-of-16 match against Morocco. After scoring the opener for the Netherlands, the Liverpool forward collapsed in tears before his teammates rallied around him. Pointing to the sky, Gakpo then appeared to dedicate his goal to his deceased child. 📸 CARL DE SOUZA - AFP or licensors 📸 JULIO CESAR AGUILAR - AFP or licensors 📸 CARL DE SOUZA - AFP or licensors The 3 players who stood out It was a night for the goalkeepers, and it’s time to pay tribute to them. Heroic with six saves, but above all two penalties stopped against Germany, Orlando Gill is without a doubt the hero of this surprising Paraguay side. Even crazier, Gill, who plays for San Lorenzo, is in conflict with the club’s management and has not been paid for more than six months. Later in the night, Yassine Bounou then got us on the edge of our seats with a decisive save in the shootout and a demeanor that seemed to completely unsettle the takers. Finally, the other Moroccan hero was Issa Diop. Called up late to join the Atlas Lions, the Fulham defender helped his side equalize in the final moments of the match with a crucial header.
