Joe Hart’s Fury: Calls Paraguay’s World Cup Tactics ‘Absolute Disgrace’
Former England and Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart condemned Paraguay’s conduct in the World Cup 2026 round of 16 clash with France. He was particularly angered when Gustavo Velazquez deliberately scuffed the penalty spot before Kylian Mbappe took his kick. Hart said he would have torn off his teammate’s shirt if he’d behaved that way. Hart praised Mbappe’s composure under pressure and criticised the referee for not booking a single Paraguayan player during the 90 minutes. France now prepare for a quarter-final showdown with Morocco after Mbappe’s decisive strike.
