Venezuela vs. Ecuador 16 Oct 2012

This afternoon at 5pm Ecuador will travel to Venezuela in hopes of a victory to create a significant lead over its rival. With Chile playing Argentina today, and an expected loss for Chile, and an Ecuador victory over Venezuela, Ecuador can create a 7 point lead over the 5th place team in the group.

At the midway point in group qualifying Ecuador is 1 point behind group leader Argentina, tied with rival Colombia, and 4 points in front of fourth place Uruguay. After an impressive showing against Chile, today could be the turning point of the entire qualifying for the team. A victory today with only 7 matches remaing would make Ecuador a favorite to qualify for its first World Cup since 2006.

GO ECUADOR!
