The uncertainty surrounding the complaint against Ecuador, on which La Roja’s World Cup option depends, is beginning to end. This Monday, the Guayas federation must present its arguments before the Disciplinary Unit of the governing body of world football.
Uncertainty over the resolution of the Byron Castillo affair, on which Chile’s eventual qualification for the World Cup depends administratively, is beginning to dissipate. Or, at least, it has a specific date: FIFA communicated that the decision of the disciplinary unit, which is investigating the complaint filed by the legal team led by lawyer Eduardo Carlezzo, on behalf of the Chilean federation, will be announced on Friday, June 10 . That is to say, three days before the playoffs that Peru and the winner of the match between the United Arab Emirates and Australia should host. The Inca Federation is the other interested party in the dispute and has been officially invited by the body that governs world football to take part in the allegations.
In principle, June 14 was the date indicated by FIFA to issue the decision on the complaint against Ecuador for the Byron Castillo case. However, in view of the deadlines, which are beginning to tighten, already projecting the development of Qatar 2022, that day the parties concerned were informed of the rectification.
A process that will continue
The new date of the judgment is also linked to a stage perceived as natural in the evolution of the process: the concrete possibility that one of the federations attend the CAS to request the possible revision of the resolution .
The only term that remains from what was initially indicated is the one that Ecuador has to present its defenses. The Guayas federation must deliver the statements this Monday to address the Chilean position that Byron Castillo did not meet the conditions to be considered an eligible player and that, therefore, Ecuador must lose the points he has. obtained with the participation of the Barcelona side.
In Ecuador, they try to keep calm. “For the FEF, the problem is rooted in FIFA and this is where arguments must be made and await resolution “, to care about Jock Carlos Manzur, vice-president of the FEF. The personero left the door open for the process to continue to develop in other cases. “And there surely call and then to CAS “, he added.
