Ecuador’s national team beat Uruguay 2-1 on Tuesday with a brace by central defender Félix Torres to come back from Agustín Canobbio’s opening goal, but still does not add up in the standings due to the Byron Castillo case, which caused La Tri to start the 2026 World Cup qualifiers with -3 points.
Ecuador finished the second day of the South American qualifiers with 0 points, while Uruguay got 3 points thanks to its 3-1 win over Chile on the first day, with a compact and versatile game that it could not replicate in the altitude of Quito.

Preview of the Ecuador vs Uruguay match
La Tri, who slipped for a 1-0 loss visiting Argentina in Buenos Aires last week, is at the bottom of the current standings of the southamerican qualifiers with -3 points, punishment imposed last year by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (TAS) for the Byron Castillo case.
Meanwhile, La Celeste won with authority 3-1 against Chile in Montevideo with an impressive performance by the players both on attack and deffense, but Uruguay’s coach Marcelo Bielsa was not quite please with what he saw on the soccer field and will design a new strategy for the match.
