Ecuador and Uruguay animated an intense match
in the 2,850 meters high of Quito.
It was a 4-2 victory for the Argentine Gustavo Alfaro's team, which became strong in the Casablanca stadium of the University Sports League and added its first three points in the qualifying qualifying rounds for the Qatar World Cup 2022. It was a concert of goals and VAR interventions that made the Colombian referee Wilmar Roldán twist several decisions.
The goal of Moisés Caicedo, just 18 years old, made the difference in the first half.
The kid, born in 2001, deflected a center from Luis Mena's right to break the parity.
An intense, harsh Ecuador was seen, he was not inhibited by Master Tabárez's La Celeste.
The midfield dominated, it was solid.
And he put Uruguay to play on his land.
He did not avoid the brush.
He played
in Alfaro Mode
.
Short, cunning team.

And already in injury time, the second goal of the locals arrived, through Michael Estrada, who minutes before had a goal annulled at the request of the VAR.
This Ecuador has a virtue: it takes advantage of almost everything it has at its disposal.
Every detail transforms it into a goal.
Two to zero!!!!
Michael Estrada !!!
Come on Tri !!!

At the start of the complement, Uruguay had managed to discount after Darwin Núñez deflected the ball after a center from the right and left Dominguez with no chances, but judge Roldán returned to resort to VAR as in the first half and thus drowned out the cry of the Celeste.
Immediately afterwards, Michael Estrada reappeared on the scene with a powerful shot to stretch distances and transform the partial victory into a win.
GOLO DO EQUADOR!

And Gustavo Alfaro's team did not stop there.
With Uruguay beaten and unanswered at the height of Quito, Gonzalo Plata, another kid (19 years old), who had entered a few minutes earlier, made it 4-0 for the homeowner with a soccer daddy play after a series of puzzles of the visiting defense.

Six minutes from the end, with the luck cast, Luis Suárez scored a penalty - marked by the VAR - the discount for Celeste to decorate the result a bit.
In the added time - Roldan gave ten minutes - everything continued to happen.
There was another goal disallowed for Ecuador and another penalty for Uruguay that Suárez was in charge of translating in his second cry of the afternoon in Quinto.
A mini-consolation for the Atlético de Madrid striker who reached 24 goals in the Qualifiers and took a slight advantage of Messi, who did not score in La Paz and still with 22.
⚽️83´Gooool from Uruguay.
Luis Suárez penalizes the discount
