Ecuador and Ivory Coast don't have any time to waste in Group E at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Also in their group is Germany, which thrashed Curacao by a 7-1 score earlier on Sunday.
In one of the most evenly matched group stage matches, one that should be an enjoyable watch, a win by one of these teams would be a huge statement and a huge step toward solid knockout round positioning.
A loss doesn't doom, but it makes things a whole lot tougher.
Maybe these teams would settle for a draw if that's how it looks late, but there's too much attacking talent in these sides for that to happen as an early approach.
Below, you can follow along with the action as the match goes along.
