Lingerie model Larissa Riquelme, who became a worldwide sensation during the World Cup, will run naked through the streets of Asuncion despite Paraguay's exit in the quarter-finals after a 1-0 defeat against Spain.

Riquelme had promised to run naked through the streets of Asuncion if the boys in red and white made the semis.

However, Riquelme has decided to keep her promise as a present to the players for trying their level best.

"It will be a present to all of the players, and for all the people in Paraguay to enjoy, because they tried as hard as possible and gave it their all on the field," the Daily Telegraph quoted her as saying.

However, the exact date for Riquelme's streak has not been announced.
