Paraguay

The Paraguay national football team finished the South American World Cup qualifying zone (CONMEBOL) behind Brazil and Chile on 3rd place, which allowed for direct participation in the World Cup finals. Therefore Argentina was behind them. If they hadn't lost the last qualifying game against Colombia, the Paraguayan national team even would have gone as winner of the qualification to the World Cup.

The FIFA World Cup 2010 in South Africa is the eighth tournament with the participation of Paraguay. Three times reached the La Albirroja the last sixteen round: 1986 (Mexico), 1998 (France) and 2002 (South Korea/Japan). At the last FIFA World Cup 2006 in Germany, as in the remaining three appearances (1930, 1950 and 1958), the end came in the first round.
