Qatar vs Ecuador: Preview

Since Qatar was chosen to host the 2022 World Cup back in 2010, controversy has flared up; but, on the field, Sanchez Bas and his team of prospective legends have only worked to improve their chances of progressing past Group A. For the world’s 50th-ranked country, playing 2010 World Cup finalists Netherlands and Africa Cup of Nations champions Senegal is definitely a baptism of fire, but they have competed in four warm-up friendlies since October and have won all four of them.

Ecuador has already participated in three editions; in 2002, 2006, and 2014, although they have only ever advanced past the group stages once, losing in the round of 16 back in 2002. It was also the first occasion that they have ever won their opening game of the competition. The hallmark for Gustavo Alfaro’s team throughout their prior warm-up matches has been keeping clean sheets. Amazingly, Ecuador has recorded six shutouts from six games since the beginning of June, but they have only scored twice themselves, with four of those six games ending in a scoreless draw.
