It's not going to get better for Caicedo once Bissouma returns from national team duty. It sucks but it looks like he'll ride the bench for awhile. He was better off in Belgium tbh
Super last minute and at a detriment to what will likely be 50% of the public who bought tickets and won't be allowed in. I imagine there will be lots of angry folks left holding the bags...and those poor vendors who haven't been able to get their merchandise and food orders in to benefit from consumers. All around, it's a terrible decision. 60+% of Ecuadorians have informal sector jobs - the types of jobs that serve people like event attendees and we just cut a big source of possible January revenue. That being said, how are people allowed into movie theaters to watch the game but can't go to the stadium? Makes no sense. I really hope it gets reversed - for the morale of the team, too.
I don't want to get too much into the politics surrounding covid and whatnot but I don't see the logic behind their decision. 50-60% seems reasonable to me. I think attendees would have had to show proof of vaccination too. At a certain point we have to move on as a society. This time the new variant was omicron. There will be more variants. We have to learn to live with covid because it's gonna stick around.
I was in Ecuador for a month (just got back), and you need to show your vax card everywhere you go - your suggestion is not only awesome, but it's also the baseline mandate over there. I really don't know how they're acting so weird about this when restaurants and movie theaters are going to be filled to the brim.
Better than nothing. Cooler heads prevailed and hopefully the crowd works to our benefit. I'm sure Lasso intervening was a key piece that made the COE blink.
Looks like Alfaro will go with a 4-3-3: Alexander Domínguez; Ángelo Preciado, Félix Torres, Piero Hincapié y Pervis Estupiñán; Carlos Gruezo, Moisés Caicedo y Alan Franco; Gonzalo Plata, Énner Valencia y Michael Estrada.
Lol país al revés,the science says it’s way safer to be outside with a mask to avoid infection as the aerosols get blown away as opposed to being indoors where there’s more risk of the aerosols to accumulate without adequate ventilation.♂️
]WTF Dominguez,he’s looking very erratic,not on his game just committed a foul about to be thrown out.
