Oh God, why? Arda Guler's despair when Türkiye was eliminated from the World Cup
Türkiye was eliminated from the 2026 World Cup after defeat to Paraguay, leaving players and fans in a state of shock.
Türkiye endured a painful Saturday as their national team was officially eliminated from the 2026 World Cup. A 0-1 defeat to Paraguay, along with a 0-2 loss to Australia in the opening match, prevented coach Vincenzo Montella's team from getting past the group stage, leaving the whole country in a state of shock.
Emotional images were recorded when many players, including Arda Guler, appeared completely devastated after the loss. They faced heavy criticism from the media as well as from former coaches and famous Turkish players for not being able to get past the group stage against opponents like Australia and Paraguay.
One of the most touching images is the moment Arda Guler, Real Madrid's young talent, was recorded right after the referee blew the whistle to end the match. On the San Francisco Stadium, he looked up at the sky and uttered the painful words: "Oh God. Why?". This statement quickly spread on social networks, clearly expressing disappointment that cannot be expressed in words.
Before the tournament took place, the Turkish team was considered a bright candidate for the top position in the group. However, all hope was lost when they could not win any points. This year 2026 will be an unforgettable memory for Arda Guler, as he was not only eliminated from the World Cup but also did not win any titles with Real Madrid after the failed coaching change between Xabi Alonso and Arbeloa.
