Paraguay has a lot riding on its progress in the World Cup. National fame and pride, maybe a little extra money in their pockets. If the White and Red goes all the way and take the championship on July 11, though, there’ll be a naked lingerie model running through the streets of their country, too.

Larissa Riquelme is a Paraguayan model who has become the most famous fan of her national team recently. She’s been among the throngs gathering in Asuncion, the nation’s capital, to watch their team play in the month-long tournament.

Pictures of the 24-year-old cheering for Paraguay with her cell phone in between her breasts have spread like wildfire around the internet. According to the Daily Mail, Riquelme told a Paraguayan news outlet she’d run through the streets of the capital in her birthday suit if Paraguay takes home the title. She’d have a little covering, though; she says she’d paint her body in the team’s colors.

Riquelme isn’t the first person to promise a little streaking if their team wins the World Cup. Argentina head coach Diego Maradona said he’d run through Buenos Aires nude if his team brings home the Cup.
