Ecuador "in a state of war" and football in check: matches behind closed doors, with the Cup Winners' Cup ahead. At the end of the month, the Quito League must play against Fluminense, and it would do so without an audience.
The decision may also affect the Libertadores and the Sudamericana. The increase in violence in all the cities of Ecuador, the constant bomb threats in public spaces and the presence of narco-terrorist gangs caused the suspension of massive events.
