This is how Ecuador arrives
The Ecuadorian national team had an eventful debut in the Copa America 2024 after Venezuela turned the score around 2-1. That wasn’t the only bad news for the ‘tri’since in that match, their scorer and captain, Enner Valencia, was sent off with a direct red card for a harsh tackle against Jose Martínez. His place against the Jamaicans would be taken by Kevin Rodríguez.
Under that premise, coach Félix Sánchez Bas will try to reformulate the approach and go all out against the ‘reggae boyz’. A draw or a defeat practically leaves them out of the competition.
This is how Jamaica arrives

When it seemed that the Caribbean were close to rescuing a point, finally the left back’s goal sank them to the bottom of the table.
However, those led by Heimir Hallgrímsson proved to be a solid team that looked for counterattacks with the power of Michail Antonioforward for West Ham of the Premier League, and who is its main figure.
Leon Bailey was another of the greatest exponents, but he resigned from his country shortly after the continental tournament due to the informality of the Jamaican Football Federation.
