Sees yellow for simulation in loss
Almiron took two shots (off target), committed one foul, suffered one foul, and picked up a yellow card for simulation in Friday's 4-1 loss to the United States.
Analysis: Almiron was one of Paraguay's primary outlets in transition, but the match never developed in a way that allowed him to consistently influence the attack. The United States' control of midfield possession and defensive organization largely neutralized his biggest strengths. While he had moments of positive ball progression and attacking intent, he was unable to produce the decisive chance creation or finishing that Paraguay needed to challenge the Americans.
Primary playmaker for Paraguay
Almiron should have an important role as one of Paraguay's main playmakers in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Analysis: Almiron hasn't had his best season with Atlanta United in 2026, notching just two assists across eight appearances in the current league campaign. However, Almiron tends to play a critical role in Paraguay due to his extensive experience in Europe, and he's ticketed to be one of Los Guaranies' main playmaking threats alongside Julio Enciso (thigh).
