Sunderland defender, Paolo Da Silva and new signing Cristian Riveros will be on their way home from the FIFA World Cup tonight as Paraguay lost to Spain 1-0 in Johannesburg.

Paraguay battled well against the European Champions and missed a penalty to lead 1-0 in the 2nd half. David Villa scored with minutes to go to seal a place in the Semi Finals.

Both Da Silva & Riveros have had excellent tournaments with Riveros especially winning rave reviews for his solid performances in midfield.

The two players will both now take extended rest and join pre-season training at Whitburn later than the rest of the squad.
