Chile vs. Ecuador Article

The Chilean team and the Ecuadorian team disputed a match on the 15th of October of 2013; it is the third time between the years 2010 and 2013 that both teams will play a match. The 15th of August of 2012 both teams play a friendly match, the second time that both teams play, was the 12th of October in 2012, for the 2014 world cup, and the last math until now is in the 15th of October of 2013. This match had a great importance because Ecuador needed just one more point to firmly pass to the 2014 world cup, if Ecuador loses it will get harder to go to the 2014 World Cup. In other matches between both teams, normally wins Ecuador. The first international match that Ecuador played was in Colombian, Ecuador against Bolivia the result was a tie, they played the 8th of August of 1938. The first international match that Chile played was Chile against Argentina, they played in Argentina, the result was that Argentina won; they played the 19th of May of 1910. The best result for the Ecuadorian tea was in the 22 of June of 1975 against Per, Ecuador won 6:0. The best result for the Chilean team was in the 4 th of January of 1997 against Armenia, Chile won with a score of 7:0. The worst match played for Ecuador was in the 22nd of January of 1942 against Argentina, Ecuador lost with a score of 12:0. The worst match that Chile played was in the 17 of September of 1959 against Brazil, Chile lost with a score of 7:0. In the 2014 World cup I think it is going to be really hard for Ecuador to play, because they need to get used to the climate of Brazil, I Brazil there is a special climate, its a humid and hot climate that makes you get tired really fast even for the players from Latin-American. Brazil doesnt have any big mountain that makes it very different for the players from Ecuador to practice and play in Brazil. Ecuador will have to train very hard and practice a lot if they want to win this world cup, because of its climate and the country. In the Ecuadorian team as in the Chilean team there have been some really good players that have made history in their countries. In Ecuador the best recently best player is Antonio Valencia chosen as the second best player in the world cup of Germany, another good players are Christian Bentez and Felipe Caizedo the player that has score more goals. In Chile some of the players right now are Claudio Bravo, Alexis Snchez and Mataz Fernndez. The players that played the 15th of October of 2013 were for Ecuador: Alexander Domnguez; Walter Ayov, Jorge Guagua, Juan Carlos Paredes, Fricson Erazo; Segundo Castillo, Antonio Valencia, Cristian Noboa, Enner Valencia; Felipe Caicedo y Jefferson Montero. Entrenador: Reinaldo Rueda. The players that played for Chile were Claudio Bravo; Gonzalo Jara, Gary Medel, Marcos

I conclusion I think that it would be very hard for Ecuador to win this world cup if they do not do the right training and get used to the weather, even though they have some really good players. Chile will have the same trouble with training to get used to the weather, so it will be hard for them too. There is a possibility that Ecuador and Chile play at the world cup and that could be a great match because, both team have won equally matches with very high scores, so it will be a great match to watch and it will be hard to tell what team will be the champion.
