The Ecuadorian team started with good results in the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers and one of the keys of coach Gustavo Alfaro was the renewal of the squad. The ‘Tri’ has the presence of many young people and Washington Corozo was one of the main novelties in the last call.
After showing good performance in Pumas of Liga MX, supporting what was done with Sporting Cristal in Peru, the forward was considered for the triple date of September. The joy for Corozo was not only due to his call, but he also managed to make his debut in the match against Paraguay on matchday 9 of the qualification process.
About 65 minutes, Gustavo Alfaro decided to remove Joao Rojas from the field and send Washington Corozo in his replacement. The fast attacker stepped onto the grass of the Atahualpa Olympic Stadium in Quito with the number 20 on his back, reflecting a lot of concentration on his face.
During the minutes of activity, the forward was very mobile and eager to participate in the game, although he did not have a major role. However, he has a good memory of his first game with the ‘Tri’, since the goals of Félix Torres and Michael Estrada came in the end to secure the three points.
In addition, it is necessary to mention that Washington Corozo complied with participating in the formative stages of his selected team before debuting with the senior team. During his career, he was part of the U-17 and U-20, participating on both occasions in the South American of the category and later in the World Cups (Chile 2015 and Korea 2017). You only need to do it with the absolute combination.
Ecuador rises in the table after beating Paraguay
The Ecuadorian team won again and climbed to second place, adding 12 points and beating Argentina for better goal difference. Let’s remember that Brazil is the undefeated leader with 18 units. For its part, Paraguay added its second consecutive fall (five games without winning) and is in 6th place with 7 points.
