“To be honest, it was a very tough match; we didn't really play at all. The United States took us by surprise—we greatly underestimated them.”
-from Ultimate Hora newspaper in Paraguay
There is a lot of “Paraguay isn’t very good” talk. Full stop.
Under Alfaro, they lost just once in WCQ and went 9 straight without defeat. They beat URG, Brazil, & Argentina.
They were one of the best defensive teams in the 🌎.
Paraguay isn’t bad.
#USMNT made them look bad.

US took their foot off the pedal in the second half but what a goal to finish the S. Americans off.
