National record, but without a place in Paris 2024 for Ecuador in the World Relay

With greater possession of the ball (62%), the ‘Chatoleí’ tried to reach the Pedro Ortíz arch, but the final kick was missing from Jorge Célico’s team.

In the second half, Católica was filled with confidence and thanks to the goal by Fausto Grillo tied, at 51′. But the equality did not last almost at all, as there was a second penalty called in favor of the blues. Luis Fernando León I note.

After 2-1, the Quito team lost power and game generation. ‘Bombillo’, on the other hand, sought to increase the score but without being effective.
