Ecuador's use of non-Ecuadorian national players has caused a lot of uproars. Many countries that have not yet qualified for the World Cup finals do not want to give up this great opportunity in vain, and even Italy, which is far away in the European region of the World Cup, wants to seize the opportunity. Qualify for the World Cup group stage.

Previously, Chile had sent someone to investigate the nationality of the player.

Chile files complaint against Ecuador for using illegal players


As early as the end of April, the Latin American media broke the news that the defender named "Byron Castillo" on the Ecuadorian national team was probably not an Ecuadorian, but a Colombian. The Football Association even made forged documents to let him play in a World Cup qualifier.


The player has participated in as many as eight World Cup qualifying matches, and since several of them are against Chile, if it is found out, Ecuador has seriously violated the relevant regulations of the World Cup, and Chile will likely be added. With six points, he won fourth place in South America and replaced Ecuador in one fell swoop. To qualify for the World Cup, the Chilean Football Association asked lawyers to investigate and collect evidence.


The British newspaper The Sun recently reported:

The Chilean Football Federation obtained more evidence (eg baptismal certificate, health registration report) and submitted it to FIFA, who has ruled that the Ecuadorian defender is ineligible because he is Colombian. A more detailed punishment will be announced shortly.

The outside world believed that Ecuador was deprived of the qualification for the 2022 World Cup, but FIFA announced that it would abandon the investigation. FIFA claimed that all the evidence found was the brother of Byron Castillo, and I did hold Ecuador Nationality, thus ending Chile's lawsuit against it. Since Ecuador has not violated the regulations and will not be punished, the top 32 of the World Cup will still be in Group A. The Chilean Football Association has not given up, claiming that it will appeal.


Baron Castillo, the Ecuadorian defender, has also been questioned about his nationality in the past. At that time, the conclusion was the same as today. "Although his parents and brother are Colombian, he is an Ecuadorian." The most ending.

Italy's world football dream once again shattered


The most interesting thing about the whole incident is that the Italian national team is very concerned about it. They claim that if Ecuador is expelled from the 2022 World Cup, they will use the FIFA ranking to make up for it. As the sixth-ranked Italian player in the world. will be the biggest beneficiary.


The Italian Football Association even requested FIFA, but it was rejected. The other party said that unless a European team withdraws, FIFA can do nothing. Even if FIFA has slapped Italy in the face, some Italian media still do not give up hope, insisting that they have the opportunity to advance to the World Cup group stage. Broken again.
