World Cup 2010 Italy vs. Paraguay. Paraguay’s profile. After putting together the best qualification crusade, they should think ahead on their fourth consecutive stint at the FIFA World Cup™ finals. It is supervised by Gerardo Martino the Argentinean coach. The present Albirroja team seems to have built up the improvement made by their previous team last 1998 at France and 2002 at Korea/Japan, where Paraguay was able to reach the 16th Round before being eliminated by France and Germany.

While sustaining the defensive standards set by Los Guaraníes, they added an attacking style to their type of game thanks to their talented and powerful forwards with the capability to dislodge opposing rearguards. That new offensive threat can make the difference as Paraguay amends for their elimination in the first-round at Germany 2006. This was a setback that was experienced by some of the current squad members and would not like to repeat in South Africa.

This is the first time that the team was able to pass the 30-point barrier since the current qualifying system started. With it’s 10 wins, along with Chile, has the most in the group. They also garnered three draws and five losses and was able to collect 33 points overall to finish after Chile and Brazil. Martino’s squad sealed their way to the finals with a 1-0 win over Argentina last September in Asuncion, with a declaration on national holiday by President Fernando Lugo to celebrate the nation achievement.

Paraguay’s key to the impressive progress was their impressive form at the Estadio Defensores del Chaco, winning seven games in all. They only lost three on the road and got 12 points total. This record suggests that they could cause problems in the finals for their opponents.

Martino has access to the services of some internationally known players. A lot of them come from Europe and Mexico football clubs. While the team had good players in every area, the team’s biggest names are in the front line.

Roque Santa Cruz played in England with some successful seasons. His importance to the national team will be greatly needed despite his being absent from a lot of the qualifying games. Substituting all the way through were Nelson Haedo Valdez and Salvador Cabanas who added 11 goals between them. These three all played at Germany 2006 and the memories of their disappointing group-phase loss could trigger their goals in South Africa.

Gerardo Martino their coach is an Argentinean tactician who is now a stand out in the South American game. He is also named El Tata in the 1990s. He was also an attacking midfielder before shifting to coaching in 1998. After coaching a number of teams in his country, he switched to Paraguay. He took over Cerro Porteno then Libertad. This is where he got his greatest achievements at club level. Watch and enjoy the World Cup 2010 Italy vs. Paraguay.
