In the last round of the South American World Cup qualifiers, Ecuador will tie a record held by Brazil as long as he wins Argentina at home.

The South American World Cup qualifiers are coming to an end. In the penultimate round, Argentina defeated Venezuela 3-0 at home, and Messi scored two goals. In fact, this game has long since not affected Argentina's advancement. The South American World Cup qualifiers adopt the major league model, and the expansion of the army now gives South America 6.5 places. Therefore, from the perspective of promotion, Argentina, which has long been the top spot, was actually garbage time in the last few rounds. The real highlight is on Venezuela. After all, they have to win in the last round to retain their playoff spot.

But for neutral fans, of course, everyone is concerned about the top teams, although they have basically all gone ashore. In fact, the biggest surprise in this World Cup qualifier is not Argentina, but Ecuador. As a non-traditional strong team, Ecuador performed extremely stably this time, surpassing strong teams such as Brazil and Colombia. Although Ecuador ranks fourth now, it has just been overtaken by Brazil and Uruguay. And don’t forget that Ecuador started this World Cup with the disadvantage of losing 3 points. So in fact, Ecuador is still the second largest player in South America in terms of actual performance. In the last round, they still have the chance to get the second place back. What caused Ecuador to lose his second position was the result of their round - 0:0 tied Paraguay. Can you imagine it? This is Ecuador's 0-0 score in four consecutive games. Whether it is the strong Brazil, Chile, Peru, and Ecuador, they all play a draw that is not hurt and does not even score a goal. According to this trend, will Ecuador play at home against Argentina in the last round? Will it be 0:0?

scores are absent. If Ecuador can win Argentina at home, they will tie a South American World Cup qualifier record held by Brazil. This matter starts with the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. At that time, Brazil and Argentina led the way, without losing a single game, and established their top two positions early on, and entered Qatar together. Not only that, the second round of the two sides was eventually cancelled due to epidemic prevention reasons. This did not affect the entire World Cup qualifiers. Moreover, the two sides jointly created a record at that time - this was the first time since the 1998 World Cup qualifiers adopted the big round-robin system, the total number of goals conceded was less than 10. Moreover, two teams appeared at once. At that time, Argentina conceded only 8 goals in 17 games, while Brazil was even better, and only 5 goals in 17 games. Why is it the 17th War, not the 18th War? It is because both sides cancelled the second round. Note that Brazil conceded 5 goals, which is the record under the South American World Cup qualifiers. In this World Cup qualifier, Argentina has conceded 9 goals so far, one more than last time. But Ecuador is awesome. They have only conceded 5 goals so far, the least among all 10 teams. And looking at history, it is also the same as Brazil, which was last World Cup qualifiers. So the problem is that as long as Ecuador does not concede the goal in the last round, it will be a record. It may not be difficult to do this. First, Ecuador has not conceded goals in four consecutive games, and the trend is very good. Second, Argentina has already advanced, and the last round is purely an exhibition match. Third, Ecuador is difficult to play at home and has obvious advantages in the plateau. In fact, in the context of expanding the army, the South American World Cup qualifiers are really boring. The biggest suspense is the battle for the sixth place, the seventh place, and the battle for the seventh place, and the teams falling into this area are likely not a strong team. So, it’s better to find some other gimmicks, such as data records, etc. It depends on whether Ecuador can tie Brazil's record.
