My guest is Ralph Hannah, who runs the Guaraní Vision podcast focussed on Paraguayan football. He discusses the history of the game in the landlocked South American country, its major clubs and rivalries, and fan culture, as well as his groundhopping tips.

We look at Olimpia’s incredible success, both domestically and internationally, and that of its key rival, Cerro Porteño. We also look at Paraguay’s greatest players and hear how its current crop of talent is getting on around the world.

We release a new podcast every Monday, so be sure to subscribe on your preferred podcast platform. We’re on AppleSpotifyStitcherPlayer.FM and Anchor. Look for us in Google Podcasts too. We’d really appreciate a rating or view if you like what we’re doing as it helps others discover our podcast.
