This Friday, the football body announced that it had decided to close the disciplinary proceedings against the Ecuadorian Football Federation.
Chile’s complaint against the Ecuadorian Football Federation for using Byron Castillo in the qualifying process has finally gotten its answer. The highest body of international football has decided to close the procedure against the FEF, so Chile will not be present at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, which was the objective sought.
Following this, the international press reacted with everything, shaking hands with Chile for wanting to enter the World Cup as a secretary.
One of them was TYC Sports. The Argentinian media published on its website that “FIFA rejects Chile’s request and Ecuador goes to the World Cup ”.
But his less serious comment was made on the outlet’s Twitter account in which they posted an old photograph of Arturo Vidal along with text that reads “Year 2054: Arturo Vidal continues to work to take his children to the World Cup ”.

Olé, for his part, titled that “FIFA’s decision is in: Ecuador at the World Cup, not Chile ”. And later they said that “the captivating romance of the World Cup is over. After several days of crossfire and rumors of all kinds, this Friday around noon in our country, FIFA announced the judgment in the Byron Castillo case and Gustavo Alfaro clenched his fist: football’s highest body has determined that Ecuador will be able to play the World Cup in Qatar and did not give rise to Chile’s claim, which went from the illusion of winning the classification on the desk to disappointment “, they exposed.
In Peru, Líbero pointed out that “Ecuador goes to Qatar 2022! FIFA disagreed with Chile over Byron Castillo claim ”. They also said that “Ecuador retains its place in Qatar 2022, after FIFA declared Chile’s complaint unfounded for alleged false documents from Byron Castillo, who was singled out for being from Colombia and not from the country of ‘Sorting'”.
Depor, meanwhile, reported that “this Friday the decision of Byron Castillo was defined at FIFA. This verdict also decided that the Ecuadorian national team continues in the World Cup, while ‘La Roja’ is left without a World Cup”.
In Uruguay, Ovación reported that “FIFA does not grant Chile’s claim in Byron Castillo case and Ecuador will go to the World Cup in Qatar ”. They add that “the Qualifying table does not change and therefore the Tri will be in the World Cup and will be one of the representatives of South America”.
Ecuador celebrates
Studio Fútbol posted: “¡CHILE… DON’T DRESS UP YOU ARE NOT GOING! FIFA’s opinion was in favor of Ecuador ”. And on their Twitter account they added “Chile, all is not lost, we still have to lose in the CAS!” .
The same tone of celebration and ridicule against Red Football Ecuador had, which in their note they headed with that “THIS IS FOR CHILE WHO WILL SEE IT ON TV : FIFA closes the Byron Castillo case and Ecuador will play the World Cup!
“The governing body of world football has announced its decision, with which the request of the Professional Football Association (ANFP) of Chile is rejected and it is ratified that, just as it won on the pitch, the Tri also won its ranking at the fourth World Cup in its history on the podium.
Reactions outside of South America
