Ecuador Player Ratings
Hernan Galindez - 7/10
Possibly the easiest clean sheet Galindez is going to get in this World Cup as the Ecuador shot-stopper wasn't really tested in goal.
Angelo Preciado - 8/10
Preciado assisted Valencia's second goal with a fine cross and constantly tested Qatar's defense with his creativity and energy.
Felix Torres - 6/10
The 25-year-old had a solid game and was largely untroubled by the Qatari attackers.
Piero Hincapie - 6.5/10
The defender made accurate long balls to push Ecuador forward and was generally solid in defense too.
Pervis Estupinan - 7/10
Estupinan made three clearances and completed four tackles to lead by example in defense. He also made dangerous forward runs to trouble the hosts.
Gonzalo Plata - 5.5/10
Off the pace with inaccurate crosses (he failed to complete even one of his six attempts) and sloppy on the ball - Plata was one of the few Ecuador players to not have a good game.
Sebas Mendez - 6.5/10
He won plenty of turnovers in midfield to put pressure on Qatar and was booked for a foul on Akram Afif.
Moises Caicedo - 7.5/10
He was the architect of Ecuador's second goal, initiating the counter-attack which eventually led to his header and was dominant in the middle of the park.
Romario Ibarra - 5/10
A toothless display from the Pachuca attacker, who completed only 10 passes in the match and offered no attacking bite.
Enner Valencia - 9/10
The Ecuador skipper made up for the chalked-off goal with a nonchalant penalty to put them in front before doubling their advantage with a brilliant header.
Michael Estrada - 7/10
Estrada was strong in the air and dominant in his duels. He could've been slightly better in possession and passing.
Substitutes
Jeremy Sarmiento (68' for Ibarra) - 7/10
His ability to regain possession was good and he made a few intelligent runs.
Jose Cifuentes (77' for Valencia) - 5/10
He struggled to get himself involved in the proceedings.
Alan Franco (90' for Caicedo) - N/A
Not enough time to make an impact.
Kevin Rodriguez (90' for Estrada) - N/A
Not enough time to make an impact
