the match
—
Ivory Coast finished the qualifying round without conceding a single goal in ten matches, winning eight and drawing twice, with 25 goals scored. From one rocky defense to another, because Ecuador, led by the Argentine Sebastián Beccacece, secured the pass for the World Cup by building an exceptional defensive base: five goals conceded in 18 games, with 13 clean sheets. But even in attack, the two teams are full of talent. The South Americans can count on Enner Valencia and Kendry Paez from Chelsea. The Ivorians, on the other hand, in addition to Inter player Bonny, have players of the caliber of Yan Diomande, Amad Diallo and Simon Adingra in their offensive arsenal.
