The goalkeeper of Paraguay, Justo Villar is out of the World Cup after injuring his knee during the match against England. He was substituted by Aldo Bobadilla after 8 minutes of the first half of the match.

Justo was the goalkeeper during the whole qualifying phase. His last performances in his team Newel’s Old Boys of Argentina awarded him as the best goalkeeper of the tournament last year.

This injury was not in the plans of anyone, mainly because he was in great physical shape, so everybody is really concern about this. The Paraguayan medics said that he will need at least a month of rest to recover.

Well, what can I say about The game, but that it was boring. England the favourite didn’t show mach and the own goal by the Paraguayan captain gave then the norrow win. Paraguay played without any clues. They were lost in the field and their physical fitness… very poor!!
I hope that the coach Ruiz will take some risk and start to play a more offensive game instead of always waiting behind and try to win the game by surprise contraattack. They need to take their heads out of the sand and play the real game!!

Aldo Bobadilla!! Love him a lot! I think it was meant to be that Justo Villar was out of the field after only 8 minutes playing. Because it was the moment for Bobadilla. He saved many goals to be and Paraguay should be very proud of him, really. People pay too much attention to villar that they don’t see the greatness of Bobadilla. I hope for the next match, coach Ruiz will put Bobadilla as Paraguay’s goalkeeper instead of Villar. and no doubt Paraguay will get its chance to go to the next level. God bless.
