Watch Ecuador Vs. Chile Copa America Live Stream: Start Time, Preview, How To Watch Crucial Group C Match Live


Chile can greatly improve their position in their quest for a third Copa America title in a row, when they face a team in crisis, Ecuador, in their second Group C match. This comes after leaders and 15-time champions Uruguay suffered a shock 2-2 draw to Japan, an invited “guest” team in the South American continental championship, on Thursday, as the BBC reported. Ecuador comes into the second group stage match suffering three defeats without a victory in their last five matches, including a 4-0 pounding by Uruguay in their first group match in the 2019 Copa America. Chile will try to grab all three points and continue Ecuador’s pain in the match that will live stream from Salvador.

Ecuador finds themselves playing under pressure, with their coach’s job on the line, as they have dropped eight games while winning only four with three draws since Hernan Dario Gomez took over the team in August of last year. But the head of the country’s football federation defended the coach — at least for now — according to BeIn Sports.

“We are not understanding the reality of our football and that is not the fault of one or two people,” Francisco Egas said on Thursday. “If we believe that the crisis of the national team is the product of one person, we have made a mistake already.”
