World Cup 1/8 Final
Türkiye - España 1:6
Stadion: Gazi Mustafa Kemal ATATÜRK
pitch width 64
pitch height 95
I am honestly speechless after witnessing what just happened in this match. I was expecting a close, dramatic battle, maybe even extra time and penalties but instead, we got a true shocker. Türkiye, one of the most passionate and dedicated football nations in the Sokker world, was crushed 1:6 by Spain. There are no excuses here this was not a matter of game engine randomness. It was pure domination from Spain, and full credit must go to their coach Payas and his perfectly prepared team.
Tactical Overview
Türkiye Coach: LowPing
Formation: 5–3–2
Türkiye started cautiously, focusing on a compact defense and midfield control. The idea was to neutralize Spain’s attacks through the center. However, the plan backfired badly the Turkish defense couldn’t cope with the Spanish tempo and creativity.
España Coach: Payas
This setup surprised everyone. Payas went all-in with three forwards Oriol de la Sagra , Mauricio Pesquera , Javi Suárez Betancort , and later substitute Lucas Notario Caro . That attacking trio (and later quartet) was simply unstoppable. They pressed high, combined beautifully, and created chaos in the Turkish backline from the first minute.
A tactical switch at halftime attempting wing play also failed to change the course of the game.
Key Match Moments
*17’ – Suárez Betancort opens the scoring.
*25’ – de la Sagra doubles the lead with a clinical strike.
*37’ – de la Sagra again! Spain 3 : 0 before halftime.
*63’ – Türkiye pulls one back Baklavacı , 1 : 3. Hope? Not for long.
*72’, 85’, 88’ – Notario Caro and de la Sagra finish the job, turning it into a historic 1 : 6 win.
Spain dominated possession in the second half (60%), showed tactical discipline, and punished every Turkish mistake.
Player of the Match:
Oriol de la Sagra Spain
Weakest Link Türkiye
İdil Oltacı -Türkiye
Nervous, slow in transitions, caused unnecessary fouls and received an early yellow. He struggled to keep up with Spain’s pace and broke the defensive rhythm several times.
Before the match, these two teams looked evenly matched. Many expected a tactical chess battle, maybe even penalties. But what we got was a stunning and unexpected blowout. Türkiye’s game plan simply collapsed under Spain’s aggressive pressing and attacking power.
Congratulations to Spain and coach Payas this was a tactical masterclass and a statement performance. After such a dominant display, Spain must now be seen as one of the main favorites to win the World Cup.
Respect to both teams but what a performance from La Furia Roja!

World Cup 1/8 Final
Ireland - Česká republika 0:5
Stadion: Kyoku Balompié Arena
pitch width 64
pitch height 110
Ireland - Czech Republic / World Cup Round of 16 Match
Before the match, there was really only one clear favorite the Czech Republic.
Still, some fans hoped for a surprise from Ireland, who had already made history by qualifying for the World Cup under their Polish coach Antoś. For the Irish community, reaching the knockout stage was already a magical achievement, and every minute on the pitch was a moment of pride.
Ireland - Česká republika 0:5
From the start, the Czech team showed why they were considered favorites. After a few early Irish chances including a powerful strike by McEneaney that hit the crossbar the Czech machine began to roll. Drahorád took control of the game, scoring a hat-trick and leading his team to a confident 5–0 victory. Despite Ireland’s fighting spirit and 62% ball possession in the second half, they couldn’t find a way past the Czech defense and goalkeeper Beňa.
The Czech coach ufhcs, from Hungary, deserves full credit for preparing his team so well. His tactics, pressing, and use of substitutes worked perfectly, giving the Czech Republic total control of the game.
On the other side, Antoś can hold his head high – his Irish squad, without big stars, played with heart, unity, and pride. Their World Cup journey will be remembered as one of the most inspiring stories of this tournament.
Man of the Match: Viktor Drahorád a true leader, scoring three goals and creating chaos in the Irish defense.
Weakest Player: Alan Norman the Irish goalkeeper had a difficult day, with several costly errors that the Czech attackers punished ruthlessly.
Congratulations to Ireland for their historic run your passion, teamwork, and determination have won the hearts of many Sokker fans around the world
The Czech Republic now moves on to face Romania in what promises to be a thrilling clash. This will be the real test for coach ufhcs and his men a match of matches!
