It was only a matter of time before Ecuador punched their ticket to Qatar 2022, but this is not how anyone expected it would happen. The same day they lost 3-1 to Paraguay, Gustavo Alfaro's men have finally secured a place in the FIFA World Cup as Peru lost to Uruguay and Chile were beaten by Brazil.

On the pitch, nothing has gone according to plan for La Tri. The hosts put themselves in front early in the game through Robert Morales, Piero Hincapie would later score an own goal before Miguel Almiron made it three in the second half. Jordi Caicedo pulled one back from the penalty spot but it was too late. The win may not mean much for Paraguay but at least it's a sign that they're starting to improve, while Ecuador may want to reflect on what went wrong - but first, they'll celebrate the qualification for the World Cup.

This will be their 42nd overall meeting. No surprises here as Paraguay are the absolute favorites in head-to-head clashes, having celebrated a victory on 22 occasions so far; Ecuador have grabbed a triumph just 12 times to this day, and the remaining seven matches have ended in a draw.

Their most recent game was played on September 2, 2021, when the La Tricolor snatched a tight 2-0 home in their first meeting in the 2022 Qatar Qualifiers in Quito. It promises to be a more exciting clash as these two countries clash again at the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers 2022.
