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 [[Football World Cup|World Cup]] qualification in [[2002 FIFA World Cup|2002]], and qualifying again for the [[Football World Cup 2006|2006 World Cup]] in which they made the last 16, losing to [[England national football team|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. 2800 m above sea level<ref>[http://www.thefa.com/WorldCup2006/teams/ECU.htm FA.com Ecuador] Retrieved April 28, 2007 </ref>), but success in qualification for, and performances in, two [[FIFA World Cup]] finals have lessened this tendency.
==History==
Although without any major tournament achievements until the current millennium, Ecuador was never short of footballing talent.
They first participated in qualifying in the [[1962 FIFA World Cup|1962]] campaign but were well beaten by [[Argentina national football team|Argentina]] over two games. However, the [[1966 FIFA World Cup|1966]] qualifying campaign pitted the side, regarded as one of the finest teams Ecuador has ever produced, against 1962 hosts and third-place finishers [[Chile national football team|Chile]] and a weakened [[Colombia national football team|Colombia]]. Ecuador, featuring stars such as Washington Muñoz, [[Alberto Spencer]], [[Carlos Alberto Raffo|Carlos Raffo]], Enrique Raymondi and Jorge Bolaños, forced a play-off in Peru before being eliminated by Chile.
Other talented players to have represented Ecuador include [[Jose Villafuerte]] in the 1970s and 1980s.
This remained the closest they had come to appearing in a finals until the [[2002 FIFA World Cup qualification (CONMEBOL)|qualification tournament for the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Korea and Japan]] in which they finished second to [[Argentina national football team|Argentina]], and one point ahead of [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]] who went on to win the World Cup. [[Agustin Delgado]], with 9 goals, finished joint top scorer in qualifying with [[Hernán Crespo]] of [[Argentina national football team|Argentina]]. [[Álex Aguinaga]], [[Iván Kaviedes]], [[Iván Hurtado]] and [[Ulises de la Cruz]] were other stars of the Ecuadorian campaign, led by [[Colombia]]n born manager [[Hernán Darío Gómez|Hernán Darío ''Bolillo'' Gómez]]. Although they were knocked out at the group stage, they achieved a 1-0 victory over [[Croatia national football team|Croatia]], who had come third at the previous edition of the [[FIFA World Cup|World Cup]].
A disappointing showing at the [[Copa América 2004|2004 Copa América]] in [[Peru]] led to the resignation of Gómez, who was replaced by another [[Colombia]]n, [[Luis Fernando Suárez]]. He lead them successfully through the latter stages of the [[2006 FIFA World Cup qualification (CONMEBOL)|qualification process for the 2006 FIFA World Cup]], finishing third to make the finals. In Germany, they were drawn into Group A with [[German national football team|the hosts]], [[Poland national football team|Poland]], and [[Costa Rica national football team|Costa Rica]]. Wins over Poland and Costa Rica earned ''La Tri'' qualification to the knockout stages for the first time.
Another disappointing showing at yet another [[Copa America]] in [[2007]] and three successive defeats in the [[2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (CONMEBOL)|2010 World Cup qualifying campaign]] led to the end of Suarez time in the national team. He was replaced in [[2008]] for [[Sixto Vizuete]], who became one of the few [[Ecuador]]ians to ever coach the national side.
Their best finish in [[Copa América]] was fourth in [[Copa America 1993|1993]] (they also finished fourth in the 'extra' South American Championship in [[South American Championship 1959 (Ecuador)|1959]]).

==2006 FIFA World Cup==
Ecuador qualified for the second time to a [[FIFA World Cup]] by finishing third in the CONMEBOL qualification tournament. They were drawn in Group A, alongside hosts [[Germany national football team|Germany]], [[Poland national football team|Poland]], and [[Costa Rica national football team|Costa Rica]].
Ecuador won 2-0 against [[Poland national football team|Poland]] in their first game in [[Gelsenkirchen]], with goals from [[Carlos Tenorio]] and [[Agustin Delgado]] sealing the win. They then beat [[Costa Rica national football team|Costa Rica]] 3-0 in [[Hamburg]], thus securing their qualification to the next round, the goals coming from [[Carlos Tenorio]], [[Agustin Delgado]], and [[Ivan Kaviedes]]. Their qualification complete, they rested key players against the hosts [[Germany national football team|Germany]] and were beaten 3-0. Ecuador thus took second place in group A behind [[Germany national football team|Germany]] and faced [[England national football team|England]] in the second round. A second half free kick from [[David Beckham]] was the only goal of the game, and Ecuador were eliminated 1-0.
