After the defeat against Argentina in its debut in the South American qualifiers, the Ecuadorian team will try to be stronger at home and defeat its counterpart from Uruguay for the second date of the qualification process.
La Tri, after its defeat against the current world champion, was unable to pay the penalty it received from the Court of Arbitration for Sports (TAS). At the moment, Ecuador still maintains its balance of -3 points and in case of defeating Charrúas it will not gather any units in the table.
