It was a hard act to follow - especially as Chilavert also plied his trade as a handy free kick taker - but with Villar between the sticks during their World Cup qualifying campaign, Paraguay have conceded just 16 goals in 18 games - only Brazil boast a better defensive record. Villar has been excellent in goal for Paraguay - as he has been for Spanish club Valladolid - and he will surely be their most hungry player. South Africa will be Villar's third World Cup and he will be hoping that he enjoys a better run than he did in his previous two. Paraguay made it this World Cup with two qualifying games remaining, beating Diego Maradona's Argentina to send their fans into rapture, and Villar will be integral in their chances of making it past the group stages.</blockquote>
