Ecuador thrashed at home on the second date of the Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifiers. The tricolores beat Uruguay 4-2, who had a very bad game. Wílmar Roldán was the central judge and had to use the VAR several times. However, the result also favored the team that Gustavo Alfaro now leads.
Moises Caicedo, Michael Estrada twice and Gonzalo Plata scored for Ecuador. Luis Suárez, with two penalty goals, scored for the Uruguayans.
At the “Rodrigo Paz Delgado” stadium in Quito, 18-year-old Moisés Caicedo opened the account for La Tri in the 14th minute when Ángel Mena took a powerful shot that the Independiente del Valle midfielder combed to beat the goalkeeper Martín Campaña. A few seconds before the break, striker Michael Estrada, of Mexican Toluca, took advantage of a loose ball inside the area to put the account 2-0. Estrada himself got the second on his personal account and the third from Ecuador at 52 minutes.
La Tri went for more with Gonzalo Plata, 19, a Portuguese Sporting Lisbon player, who sent the ball into the back of the net for 4-0 in the 75th minute. When everything seemed settled, Suárez, from a penalty, discounted 83 for Uruguay and scored his 23rd goal in the South American qualifiers to become the all-time top scorer in this tournament. And in replacement time, ‘el Pistolero’ Suárez, at the same post but with height, scored another penalty in favor of Uruguay at 95 minutes to add his twenty-fourth goal in the history of the South American qualifiers.
As a curious fact, in this match led by the Colombian referee Wilmar Roldán there were three more annotations and all canceled by the VAR. In the 18th minute, Suárez was somewhat overruled, due to Nández being out of place; and at 35 one to Estrada, from Ecuador, for a hand in the area. At 48 the VAR returned to be the protagonist with the cancellation of a goal for Darwin Núñez, from Uruguay, also by hand. On the third day, on November 12, Ecuador will visit Bolivia and Uruguay will do the same against Colombia
