It was for a long time one of the weaker teams in CONMEBOL, but it has recently had more success, making their first World Cup qualification in 2002, and qualifying again for the 2006 World Cup in which they made the last 16, losing to England.Contents1 History2 World Cup record2.1 World Cup Games2.1.1 Korea - Japan 20022.1.2 Germany 20063 Copa América record4 Pan American Games record5 Competitive record5.1 World Cup record6 2006 FIFA World Cup7 Recent results8 Current squad8.1 Recent call-up9 Current team status9.1 2010 FIFA World Cup Qualification Standings10 Famous past players11 Previous squads12 List of goalscorers in World Cups13 See also14 Notes and references15 External links//[edit] HistoryAlthough without any major tournament achievements until the current millennium, Ecuador was never short of footballing talent.They first participated in qualifying in the 1962 campaign but were well beaten by Argentina over two games. However, the 1966 qualifying campaign pitted the side, regarded as one of the finest teams Ecuador has ever produced, against 1962 hosts and third-place finishers Chile and a weakened Colombia. Ecuador, featuring stars such as Washington Muñoz, Alberto Spencer, Carlos Raffo, Enrique Raymondi and Jorge Bolaños, forced a play-off in Peru before being eliminated by Chile.Other talented players to have represented Ecuador include Jose Villafuerte in the 1970s and 1980s.This remained the closest they had come to appearing in a finals until the qualification tournament for the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Korea and Japan in which they finished second to Argentina, and one point ahead of Brazil who went on to win the World Cup. Agustin Delgado, with 9 goals, finished joint top scorer in qualifying with Hernán Crespo of Argentina. Álex Aguinaga, Iván Kaviedes, Iván Hurtado and Ulises de la Cruz were other stars of the Ecuadorian campaign, led by Colombian born manager Hernán Darío Bolillo Gómez. Although they were knocked out at the group stage, they achieved a 1-0 victory over Croatia, who had come third at the previous edition of the World Cup.A disappointing showing at the 2004 Copa América in Peru led to the resignation of Gómez, who was replaced by another Colombian, Luis Fernando Suárez. He lead them successfully through the latter stages of the qualification process for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, finishing third to make the finals. In Germany, they were drawn into Group A with the hosts, Poland, and Costa Rica. Wins over Poland and Costa Rica earned La Tri qualification to the knockout stages for the first time.Another disappointing showing at yet another Copa America in 2007 and three successive defeats in the 2010 World Cup qualifying campaign led to the end of Suarez time in the national team. He was replaced in 2008 for Sixto Vizuete, who became one of the few Ecuadorians to ever coach the national side.Their best finish in Copa América was fourth in 1993 (they also finished fourth in the 'extra' South American Championship in 1959).[edit] World Cup record1930 to 1938 - Did not enter1950 - Withdrew1954 - Did not enter1958 - Did not enter1962 to 1998 - Did not qualify2002 - Round 12006 - Round 2[edit] World Cup Games[edit] Korea - Japan 2002Ecuador was placed in Group G, alongside Mexico, Italy and Croatia.3 June 2002 Italy - Ecuador 2-08 June 2002 Ecuador - Mexico 1-2 (Delgado)13 June 2002 Ecuador - Croatia 1-0 (Mendez)[edit] Germany 2006Ecuador was placed in Group A, alongside Germany, Poland and Costa Rica.9 June 2006 Poland 0 - 2 Ecuador (Tenorio, Delgado)15 June 2006 Ecuador 3 - 0 Costa Rica (Delgado, Tenorio, Kaviedes)20 June 2006 Ecuador 0 - 3 Germany25 June 2006 England 1 - 0 Ecuador[edit] Copa América record1916 to 1937 - Did not enter1939 - Fifth place1941 - Fifth place1942 - Seventh place1945 - Seventh place1946 - Withdrew1947 - Sixth place1949 - Seventh place1953 - Sixth place1955 - Seventh place1956 - Withdrew1957 - Seventh place1959 - Withdrew1959 - Fourth place1963 - Sixth place 1967 - Did not qualify1975 - Round 11979 - Round 11983 - Round 11987 - Round 11989 - Round 11991 - Round 11993 - Fourth place1995 - Round 11997 - Quarterfinals1999 - Round 12001 - Round 12004 - Round 12007 - Round 1[edit] Pan American Games record1951 to 1991 - Did not compete1995 - Round 11999 to 2003 - Did not compete2007 - Champions[edit] Competitive record[edit] World Cup recordYearRoundGPWDLGSGA 2002Round 1310224 2006Round 2420254Total2/18730478[edit] 2006 FIFA World CupEcuador qualified for the second time to a FIFA World Cup by finishing third in the CONMEBOL qualification tournament. They were drawn in Group A, alongside hosts Germany, Poland, and Costa Rica.Ecuador won 2-0 against Poland in their first game in Gelsenkirchen, with goals from Carlos Tenorio and Agustin Delgado sealing the win. They then beat Costa Rica 3-0 in Hamburg, thus securing their qualification to the next round, the goals coming from Carlos Tenorio, Agustin Delgado, and Ivan Kaviedes. Their qualification complete, they rested key players against the hosts Germany and were beaten 3-0. Ecuador thus took second place in group A behind Germany and faced England in the second round. A second half free kick from David Beckham was the only goal of the game, and Ecuador were eliminated 1-0.[edit] Recent resultsCategoryHome TeamResultAway TeamDateVenueScorersFriendly Colombia0-1 EcuadorAug 20, 2008Giants Stadium,East Rutherford, New JerseyEcuador: Benítez 38'World Cup qualifier Ecuador0-0 ColombiaJun 18, 2008Estadio Olímpico Atahualpa,Quito, EcuadorWorld Cup qualifier Argentina1-1 EcuadorJun 15, 2008Estadio Monumental,Buenos Aires, ArgentinaEcuador: Urrutia 68'Argentina: Palacio 90'+4'Friendly France2-0 EcuadorMay 27, 2008Stade des Alpes,Grenoble, FranceFrance: Gomis 60', 86'Friendly Ecuador3-1 HaitiMar 26, 2008Estadio La Cocha,Latacunga, EcuadorEcuador: Castillo 45'; Ayoví 59'; Tenorio 61'Haiti: Charles 5'World Cup qualifier Ecuador5-1 PeruNov 21, 2007Estadio Olímpico Atahualpa,Quito, EcuadorEcuador: Ayoví 10', 48'; Kaviedes 24'; Méndez 44', 62'Peru: Mendoza 86'World Cup qualifier Paraguay5-1 EcuadorNov 17, 2007Estadio Defensores del Chaco,Asunción, ParaguayEcuador: Kaviedes 80'Paraguay: Valdez 8'; Riveros 26', 87'; Santa Cruz 50'; Ayala 82'World Cup qualifier Brazil5-0 EcuadorOct 17, 2007Estádio do Maracanã,Rio de Janeiro, BrazilBrazil: Vagner Love 18'; Ronaldinho 71',; Kaká 76', 84'; Elano 82'World Cup qualifier Ecuador0-1 VenezuelaOct 13, 2007Estadio Olímpico Atahualpa,Quito, EcuadorVenezuela: Rey 68'Friendly Honduras2-1 EcuadorSep 12, 2007Estadio Francisco Morazán,San Pedro Sula, HondurasEcuador: Guagua 87' (pen)Honduras: de León 75', Suazo 81'[edit] Current squadThe following players were called for the World Cup qualifying matches against Bolivia & Uruguay on September 6 & September 10, respectively.
