We should have a poll on which country should Ecuador paly against in a friendly.

throw in some names

Costa Rica is first I understand. I'm still confused on how they could have ranked higher than us. No worries, I'll pride will be redeemed

[Pibe#10]

you know the FIFA rankings are based on wins, the levels of the teams you play aren't taken into consideration......so a win is practically the same if its against Brasil or Salomo Islands.

[loraz]

It still confuses me. What games are included in the ranking. Are we other Cups as well?

[astabooty]

An African team that didn't qualify would be a good choice maybe. Like a Camerron or Senegal. Ireland too (euro team to not qualify).

My wife is Irish raised int Scotland. I will never hear the end of it when they lose :D

ahha that's a good idea, except for Loraz and his wife. :D
but they would be a good test, as would Camaroon or Nigeria. We can take them again! ;)

Ireland,England,Norway to name a few. Ecuador needs to play with teams that have excellent air game(juego aerio).Cause in the air,is where Ecuador hurts the most.They need to improve their air game

This would be the perfect opportunity to give Jose Valencia of NEC his chance to show us what he could to contribue to the NT. IF he's still playing with NEC around that time.

completely agree! what is suarez waiting for!! he's been long overdue for a call up!

[loraz]

Well did is purely a rumor ,but It appears that Suarez' hands are tide. Politics are getting in the way and I said it before, there is a lor of favoritism when it comes to dealing with the LDu. They get first pick. (that's boooo$hit man)

I had some peole that I know tell me this but if anyone has any articles pertaining to this subject, by all measn , post it.

Ecuador jugará cuadrangular amistoso internacional en Egipto
11/22/2005

Santiago, Chile(CRE)

La selección ecuatoriana aceptó una invitación para jugar un cuadrangular amistoso internacional en Egipto, con selecciones de varios continentes, antes de fin de año.

Originalmente Chile, estaba invitada por Sudamérica, además de Honduras, Irán y los anfitriones (Egipto).

Pero la escuadra iraní, que está clasificada para la Copa Mundo 2006, decidió retirarse y esto obligó a los organizadores a buscar otra selección clasificada para el torneo ecuménico, para que participe.

Esto ante la exigencia de la multinacional LG, principal sponsor del cuadrangular, que exige al menos una selección clasificada a la Copa del Mundo en este torneo.

Por esta razón se conversó con la gente de Ecuador, y según el empresario argentino Daniel Tamborini, "luego de intensas conversaciones" la Federación nacional ya aceptó.

Oficialmente se infirmó a la Asociación Nacional de Fútbol Profesional de Chile (ANFP), mediante una carta de que no participará de este cuadrangular internacional y se confirma que en su reemplazo jugará Ecuador.

Cabe destacar, que a Chile se le habían ofrecido las siguientes condiciones económicas por viajar a El Cairo:

Pago de US$ 100.000.
30 tickets aéreos (5 Business y 25 Turista)
Transporte Interno
Hospedaje y Alimentación para 30 personas (Hotel 5 estrellas)
Derechos de transmisión televisiva para el territorio chileno

Premio por participación de acuerdo a la siguiente escala:
US$ 50.000 por ser campeón
US$ 30.000 por ser segundo
US$ 20.000 por ser tercero.


I think this is good, the team needs more friendlies and since it's by the end of the year it won't interrupt the liguilla.
