from Wikipedia (full wiki)
Villar represented Paraguay at the 1997 FIFA World Youth Championship, and received his first full cap two years later.
Having been selected for the 2002 FIFA World Cup, backing up legendary José Luis Chilavert, he was already a starter in the 2006 edition, but had a brief participation: during the first seven minutes of the opener against England, just after Carlos Gamarra's own goal, Villar got injured, was replaced by Aldo Bobadilla, and subsequently was sidelined for the rest of the tournament, in which Paraguay was eliminated in the first round.
Additionally, Villar also appeared in three Copa América tournaments.
