Paraguay battle Spain on Saturday evening for a place in the semi-finals of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

 

Spain are looking to secure just their second ever spot in the last four at a World Cup while this summer's finals are Paraguay's best ever.

 

In 1950 Spain reached the semi-finals when just 13 teams played in Brazil and the four group winners advanced to a round-robin pool to decide the honours.

 

Spain disposed of their under-achievers tag two years ago after winning the European Championship and will start as favourites against the South Americans.

 

Paraguay have been rock-solid at the back having conceded just once in the competition, although they have struggled at the other end with just three goals from their four matches.

 

The teams will battle it out to win the right to play Germany on 7th July

An 83rd minute goal from David Villa defeated a dogged Paraguay as Spain unconvincingly booked a World Cup semi-final tie with Germany.
