Paraguay is a republic sandwiched between Brazil and Argentina, and it has a population of around 7 million.

The Paraguayan Football Association was founded in 1906, at a time when the initial popularity football was rapidly a rapid rise in South America.
Only in 1919 did the Paraguay national football team first contest an international match and it ended in a 5-1 defeat to Argentina.
Paraguay officially gained affiliation with CONMEBOL in 1921, the same year La Albirroja took part in their first major tournament. Then, in 1925, it became a member of FIFA.
In 1999, the Copa America finals were staged in Paraguay for the first time. The hosts topped their group and advanced to the quarter-finals but went on to lose on penalties to eventual runners-up Uruguay.
Two years later Paraguay achieved its highest FIFA ranking of 8th in 2001.
Paraguay was invited to take part in the inaugural edition of the FIFA World Cup in 1930, as one of 13 teams at the tournament. They lost to the United States in the group stage and thus didn't reach the knockout phase. Paraguay did, however, claim victory against Belgium.
La Albirroja missed the other two World Cup events before WWII and thus only reappeared at the showpiece in 1950. A loss against Italy meant another group exit for Paraguay. A similar storyline unfolded eight years later in Sweden, as the Paraguayans were defeated by France.
Paraguay returned to the spectacle in 1986, following an absence from six tournaments. The men in red and white advanced from the group stage for the first time, but they were ultimately knocked out by England in the Round of 16.
They featured in back-to-back World Cup events on either side of the turn of the century, making it to the knockouts on both occasions, losing to France in 1998 and then versus Germany in 2002.
Another group stage exit in 2006 was followed four years later by Paraguay's best return at the World Cup finals. At the tournament held in South Africa, La Albirroja topped their group which also comprised of reigning champions at the time Italy as well as New Zealand and Slovakia.
Paraguay then edged Japan on penalties, progressing to the quarter-finals for the first time, but fell to the eventual champions Spain.
The Paraguayans failed to qualify for each of the 2014, 2018 and 2022 editions of the World Cup, but they will be seeking a return to the global stage at the expanded 2026 event.
Paraguay first participated in the Copa America in 1921, when the competition was still known as the South American Championship. The following year, they ended runners-up to hosts Brazil and likewise to Argentina in 1929.
Paraguay were later runners-up at back-to-back events in 1947 and 1949 before eventually winning the continental showpiece at the following edition in 1953, narrowly beating Brazil in the title-decider.
La Albirroja claimed a second title in 1979, and the first since the competition had been renamed to Copa America. Paraguay overcame Chile in the three-legged final.
In 1999, on home soil, Paraguay were knocked out in the quarter-finals. The men in red and white claimed the runners-up medals once again in 2011, with a 3-0 defeat to Uruguay.
Roque Santa Cruz is undoubtedly his country's most popular footballer, past or present. He is the highest-scoring Paraguay international of all time, with 32 goals in 112 national team outings. He made his international debut in 1999, aged just 17 at the time, shortly before leaving boyhood club Olimpia Asunción to sign for European giants Bayern Munich.
It was with the Bavarians that Santa Cruz became a winner of the UEFA Champions League in 2001 as well as five Bundesliga titles before he switched to Premier League side Blackburn Rovers in 2007. The striker later joined Manchester City and won the FA Cup with them in 2011.
