Men's Football FIFA World Cup 2022

Fun fact: Only 3 players scored more than 5 consecutive goals of their teams at the WC, Eusebio, Paolo Rossi and Oleg Salenko, all scored 6 consecutive goals. Valencia really close to enter this club (since he scored last 5 ECU goals at WC)

So, how much do the Qatari government promised Ecuador for not scoring in the second half?

[Monzanator 3,618]

Game has gone down the drain the second half. Ecuador counts on goal difference not counting?  I can only wonder how bad the Qatar bench is given they are yet to make a substitution?

Especially their substitute GKs must be something special.

 

Al-Sheeb is making even the 2014 Pletikosa look good in retrospect...

For the 1st time ever an host country could lose the opening match :

 

2006: 4-2 against

2010: 1-1 against

2014: 3-1 against

2018: 5-0 against

what a moment for Imbabura, a club of 2nd division to have a mundialist on the pitch

Qatari players were really affected badly by lack of formal matches , this can't be the same team that played Asian Cup or Copa America

pshaw, there is not enough oil in all of qatar to buy them even one goal against ecuador !  at least 10-0 tomorrow mark my words

 

 

Well, I must apologize, I was wrong, only 2:0 (well, unofficially 3:0 but VAR referees went crazy for some reason)

[Monzanator 3,618]

I picked 2-1 win for Ecuador so not quite there. I counted on some first game lucky hoopla as host nation. Instead they had 0 shots on goal and 0 corners.

 

Edit: checked back and I picked 2-0 for Ecuador after all I had 2-1 for Senegal
