What follows is a plain HTML version of the Quiz.
1. than Japan but than Spain, a population slightly than Denmark, but than Hong Kong, and looking forward to their appearance in the World Cup Finals, than Portugal but than Hungary - which country am I talking about?
South Americans, Paraguay, for the 2010 World Cup on the 9th of September, just after England and Spain. They their tickets after being guaranteed a top four spot in the South America group and on the way Argentina and Brazil. This is also their fourth appearance in a row.
But what else can we say about football in Paraguay? Well, it with a Dutchman, William Paats, and the team he , Olimpia Football Club, now Club Olimpia. That was back in 1902, and four years later the Paraguayan Football League was founded, 13 years after the first league to be in South America, the Argentine league.
The power base of football in Paraguay is in Ascuncion, with nine of the 12 top-flight teams here. Teams which play outside Acunsion, like 2 (segundo) de Mayo and 3 (tercero) de Febrero, seem to be to the border areas with Brazil and Brazil and Argentina, respectively.
The most successful team in Paraguay is Olimpia by Cerro Porteno, "el club del pueblo" - the people's club. Olimpia, as mentioned are the oldest club, but Cerros Porteno are the popular.
Olimpia play in black and white stripes, have the title a record 38 times, 10 more than Porteno, and are currently third in the Clausura season after 10 games.
Cerro Porteno, also from Asuncion have, play in blue and red stripes, two political parties that were rivals when the club was formed - the strip is a symbol of how all Paraguayans should in friendship. So far this season, they could do with some friendly results, as they are in the bottom half of the table.
When these two teams meet it is the biggest match of the season - Paraguay's El Clásico.
But back to the national team. they are ranked 23rd in the world by FIFA, and will be to repeat and perhaps better their run in 1998, where they got to the last 16 only to be by France with the first "Golden Goal' in world cup history.
Players to look out for include their experienced captain, who came out of retirement to join the side again, Denis Caniza; Roque Santa Cruz, playing in the premier League for Manchester City, although not a regular in the qualifying campaign so far, should have an impact along with his strike partner, Nelson Haedo Valdez.
All that remains is to Paraguay on their qualification.
