A historic moment is coming in the CONMEBOL Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.
Carlo Ancelotti makes his debut in charge of the Brazilian National Team, which on this date has a major challenge with a visit to Ecuador at the Monumental de Guayaquil.
The Tri, led by SebastiƔn Becaccece, has consolidated itself as one of the strongest teams on the continent, and currently occupies the second place in the standings, as the runner-up to the leader, Argentina.
Brazil, with two points less and with a considerable football crisis for some time, is in fourth place with 21 points, the same score as Uruguay and Paraguay.
Carletto arrives in Brazil for his first experience with a national team.
HernĆ”n GalĆndez, a figure of the Tri, suffered an injury in the pre-competitive warm-up, and had to leave the initial lineup. In his place, against Brazil, Gonzalo Valle will play, the goalkeeper of Liga de Quito.
Ecuador starts with: HernĆ”n GalĆndez in goal; Piero HincapiĆ©, Joel Ordóñez and Willian Pacho in a three-man defensive line; Alan Franco and Pervis EstupiƱƔn on the wings; MoisĆ©s Caicedo and Pedro Vite in the double five; Alan Minda, John Yeboah and Nilson Angulo in attack.
Brazil starts with Alisson in goal; Vanderson, Marquinhos, Alexsandro and Alex Sandro in defense; Bruno Guimarães, Casemiro and Gerson in midfield; Estêvão, Richarlison and Vinicius Júnior up front.
