While happy with the win, this was a game that Ecuador had to finish off but kept on falling flat on their face. Enner had a nightmare of a game missing two key chances, Chavez was unlucky from a great save by the keeper, and Jordy kept on being offside which was so annoying to watch. But Kendry Paez, oh my god an absolute gem of a player and an amazing first half by him. Ortiz was another key player taking over the position of Estupiñan, what a game by him. Its a broken record at this point but Ecuador’s offence needs to find a solution soon as we still cant just rely on Enner, but it seems like we are in a better position for that now than before.
Bolivia were actually decent in the second half, way more chances than we thought and Henry Vaca was a key player in that, like 2/3 goals they could have scored and I was just fuming. But now they looked the better team in the second half.
EDIT - Also super happy for Rodriguez 🥹this man has had a crazy career trajectory
