The <strong>Julio Enciso stats<\/strong> behind Paraguay&#8217;s breakout star tell the story of a wonder-goal prodigy who, at the World Cup 2026, scored the strike that helped dump Germany out. Here are the numbers.

It marked the Brighton teenager out as one of the most exciting talents in the game &mdash; a left-footed attacker with flair, vision and a thunderous shot.<\/p>\n\n<h2>From Brighton to a fresh start in France<\/h2>\n<p>A serious knee injury in 2023 stalled his rise, and after three years and just five goals at Brighton he sought regular football: a loan at Ipswich, then a permanent move to Ligue 1&#8217;s Strasbourg in 2025. At 22, he is rebuilding the momentum that once made him so coveted.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Julio Enciso at the World Cup 2026<\/h2>\n<p>This is where Enciso has announced himself on the biggest stage. He scored his first World Cup goal &mdash; the opener against Germany in the Round of 32 &mdash; and added two assists in the group stage, starting every game as Paraguay <a href=\"\/us\/news\/germany-vs-paraguay-player-ratings\/\">knocked Germany out on penalties<\/a> to reach the Round of 16. It has been the breakout tournament his talent always promised.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Paraguay&#8217;s spark<\/h2>\n<p>Fearless, direct and capable of the spectacular, Enciso is the creative spark behind Paraguay&#8217;s stunning run &mdash; and one of the World Cup 2026&#8217;s breakout names.<p><em>Must be 21+ and present in a state where betting is legal.
