The Ecuadorian national team lost 2-1 against Senegal on the last date of Group A e greeted the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The team led by Gustavo Alfaro was one of the pleasant surprises of the World Cup, since despite having a squad with many young players, it left a great image, beat Qatar, drew with the Netherlands and was was one step away from qualifying for the round of 16, in what would have been a great achievement.
Arthur Vidalcurrent Flamengo player from Brazil and emblem of the Chilean team, while the match was being played, surprised showing all their support to Ecuador through their social networks.
The curious thing is that despite all the conflict arose over the case Byron Castillothe former Bayern Munich and Barcelona player has shown that he doesn’t hold a grudge.
Is that the National Professional Football Association of Chile has called for the bad inclusion of Castillo, born in Colombia, and consequently the reinstatement of points in the matches faced against Ecuador.
With those points, the Chilean team would have had enough to be present in the lands of Qatar in the great appointment of the World Cup.
Finally, Chile finished in seventh place in the South American qualifiers with 19 points and was left out of everything.
“Supporting @fefecuador. Come on, it’s possible”were Vidal’s words of encouragement on his Instagram account, where he has more than 19 million followers, as he watched the Ecuador-Senegal match on television, along with a series of “come on” emojis.
However, many Ecuadorians, hurt by the elimination, still appreciated the Chilean midfielder’s support, while many others questioned him about the goals because they saw that his message was ironic and that it was actually a joke.
Minutes before his story about the match with Ecuador, Vidal made a slightly more provocative publication.
Vidal bet directly against the team led by Louis Van Gaal.
The Netherlands topped their group as leaders with 7 units, after beating Qatar and Senegal and drawing with Ecuador.
“What burritos are the Dutch”assured King Arthur as he watched Holland vs Qatar, accompanied by some sleepy emojis.
