The FIFA World Cup 2022 is already on the horizon, starting on 20th November in Qatar. After missing out on the previous edition four years ago in Russia, Ecuador has clawed its way back to the sport’s biggest stage. Here in this episode, let’s mark the calendar with the Ecuador World Cup Schedule 2022.
In the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Ecuador lost the opening game against Switzerland. They followed that with a win over Honduras and a draw against France but couldn’t pass the group stage. La Tri hopes to go deeper this term.
