World Cup 2010: Spain Striker Fernando Llorente Expecting 'Competitive' Showing From Paraguay
The Bilbao forward hoping to please the Spanish supporters...
By Paul Madden
The Athletic Bilbao target man was an influential substitute in the win over Spain's Iberian neighbours and he believes Spain will have to replicate that performance to overcome the competitive Albirroja.
"We will go out and try to play the best way we know how to, the same as we played against Portugal, giving the best version of our play and something for the people to enjoy," he told TVE. before noting that the South Americans will prove a worthy test for the European champions.
"They have demonstrated that they are a very competitive team and the defend well and have really good forwards and they are in the quarter-finals on their own merit."
