The Chilean player played the final of the Copa Libertadores with Flamengo, this Saturday.

The episode of Byron Castillo has made football relations between Chili Y Ecuador are in maximum state of tension. The Chileans complained to Fifa about the inclusion of the footballer in several qualifying matches and asked to be given a place in the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

Although Fifa has already determined that there were no irregularities and that Ecuador remains in the World Cup, Chile insisted and Peru joined the complaint as well. The case is under study at the TAS.

One of the referents of the Chilean National Team, Arturo vidal, was this Saturday in hostile terrain. He went with Flamengo to Guayaquil (Ecuador), where his team played in the final of the Copa Libertadores.

Vidal entered the field in the 71st minute, replacing Thiago Maia, and as soon as he set foot on the pitch, the Ecuadorian fans who reached the final added salt to the wound of elimination from the World Cup.

The song of the Ecuadorians against Arturo Vidal

“You’re not going to the World Cup, you’re not going to the World Cup!” Was the cry with which they wanted to torment Vidal, who played in the 2010 South Africa and 2014 Brazil Cups, but who later had two consecutive eliminations.

The revenge for the Chilean came with the final whistle from judge Patricio Loustau and Flamengo’s third Copa Libertadores. Vidal went up to the podium, cried at the celebration and then appeared in the dressing room smoking a cigar.
