Paraguay surprised in the first minutes of the match and got up on the scoreboard over Ecuador in a duel for the penultimate date of the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers. The one in charge of scoring was Robert Morales after a 'albirrojo' attack that put three players inside the rival area. Remember that those directed by Guillermo Barros Schelotto are already eliminated, but in the previous one they mentioned that they will come out with everything.
The action came within eight minutes of play at the Antonio Aranda stadium in Ciudad del Este. The Cerro Porteño striker received from Julio Enciso after a carom very close to the big area that the Libertad footballer ended up winning. In the first he passed him to his right side and, throwing himself to catch a shot, Morales beat goalkeeper Hernán Galíndez.
PARAGUAY VS ECUADOR MATCH
Paraguay vs Ecuador will be played simultaneously with Peru vs Uruguay, Brazil vs Chile and Paraguay vs Ecuador. Those led by Gustavo Alfaro hope to add three points that will finally ensure the passage to the Qatar 2022 World Cup, but in front they will have a 'albirroja' who already assured that nothing will be saved on this double date of the South American Qualifiers.
Clearly, this is one of the best South American qualifiers Ecuador has played in recent years. With 25 points, the 'Tricolor' is only behind Brazil and Argentina and shortly after sealing their direct classification. On the other hand, Paraguay did not have a good time and in 16 matches it could only score 13 points, being totally eliminated before this double date.

Both teams have met 39 times between Copa America, friendlies and matches by World Cup Qualifiers, with the 'albirroja' having the advantage with the most wins (21). Ecuador only won 12 times, while on six other occasions they tied. The last time they met, they ended with a 2-0 victory for the 'Tricolor' with goals from Felix Torres and Michael Estrada, on September 2, 2021.
