Description

The Ecuador national football team is the national team of Ecuador and is governed by the Federación Ecuatoriana de Fútbol. It was for a long time one of the weaker teams in CONMEBOL, but it has recently had more success, making their first World Cup qualification in 2002, and qualifying again for the 2006 World Cup in which they made the last 16, losing to England. Detractors of the team have sometimes sought to attribute their success to their advantage in acclimatisation to playing matches at altitude in Quito (c. 2850 m or 9,350 ft above sea level), but success in qualification for, and performances in, two FIFA World Cup finals have lessened this tendency.
