Ecuador advanced to this CONMEBOL tournament’s round after a complicated start and a road full of ups and downs. El Tricolor opened with a loss to unbeatable Venezuela (2-1), marked by the early dismissal of Enner Valencia, their captain and all-time leading scorer.
They bounced back with a 3-1 win over Jamaica and a 0-0 draw with Mexico, securing second place in the group on goal difference (+1). Meanwhile, La Albiceleste got it ticket as absolute leader in Group A after several wins against Canada (2-0), Chile (1-0) and Peru (2-0).
Beyond the tough opponent, the biggest concerns for coach Felix Sanchez Bas center on the performance of his squad, who has shown inconsistency during the tournament and will need to improve considerably to stand a chance against the Argentinian team.
On the side of Lionel Scaloni’s team, key players such as Lionel Messi, Emiliano Martínez, Nicolas Otamendi, Marcos Acuna or Julian Alvarez (to name a few) will come back to the starting lineup and will put the pedal to the medal to reach the tournament next stage.
