    Football fans were denied the chance to see a lingerie model run naked through the streets wearing only body paint after Paraguay crashed out of the 2010 World Cup.

    Gorgeous Larissa Riquelme promised fans she would follow Diego Maradona's indecent proposal and bare all if her country went all the way in South Africa.

    "If we win the World Cup, I'll get naked and run around the city's Obelisk," then-Argentina manager Maradona said in the build-up to the tournament. And that clearly sparked something in Riquelme, who followed it up with a promise of her own.

    Riquelme, who was 24 at the time of the 2010 World Cup, rose to fame during the month-long festival of football after being papped with her mobile phone between her breasts.

    What would you do if the nation you supported won the World Cup? Let us know in the comments section below.

    Asked if she would match Maradona's daring promise, she told Globoesporte: "Of course, but with my body painted with the colours of Paraguay."

    The gorgeous South American bombshell also promised she would do a naked magazine shoot if Paraguay made it to the semi-finals in South Africa.

    Although Paraguay made it out of their group and negotiated their way through a tough-looking last-16 tie against Japan, they came unstuck in the quarter-finals after meeting Spain.

    The White and Red put up a solid showing against the eventual World Cup winners but ultimately lost 1-0, destroying the hopes of a nation, and not just with regards to tournament glory.

    It also meant that fans wouldn't see Riquelme running through the streets with only body paint covering her modesty, or partaking in a naked magazine shoot.

    Nevertheless, football fans have seen plenty of Riquelme in the time since that World Cup, with the blonde beauty having built up an impressive following on social media.

    The influencer has 1.8million followers on Instagram and recently posted a throwback snap of herself supporting her nation from the Paraguayan capital of Asuncion.

    Reposting the pictures that catapulted her to a wider audience, Riquelme received plenty of flattering responses. One person wrote: "Beautiful!!!"

    Someone else said: "Very beautiful you are my queen yesterday… today…. always." Plenty of others posted their admiration for the ex-World Cup poster girl with a series of heart eyes emojis.

    Riquelme, who posed for Playboy after the 2010 tournament, has switched her allegiance to Brazil for the 2022 event in Qatar after her beloved Paraguay failed to qualify.

    Wearing a Brazil-themed green and yellow bikini with her phone tucked into her boobs – as per the snaps that sent her viral – Riquelme confirmed her allegiance with a Brazil emoji.

    She'll be hoping Neymar and co. can finally end their World Cup hoodoo and bring the trophy back home for the first time since 2002.
