FIFA has opened a disciplinary case looking into whether Ecuador fielded an ineligible player during World Cup qualifying.

Regardless of the outcome of the case, Peru could yet qualify for the World Cup as it is scheduled to play an intercontinental playoff game against Australia or the United Arab Emirates on June 13 in Doha. Ecuador finished fourth in South American qualifying to grab the continent’s last automatic berth for the World Cup. It was drawn into a group with Qatar, the Netherlands and Senegal. GENEVA — FIFA opened a disciplinary case Wednesday looking into whether Ecuador fielded an ineligible player during World Cup qualifying, a case that could see the country thrown out of this year’s tournament in Qatar.

In this context, the FEF and the Peruvian Football Association have been invited to submit their positions to the FIFA Disciplinary Committee. As recently confirmed by FIFA ( www.FIFA.com), the Chilean Football Association has lodged a complaint with the FIFA Disciplinary Committee in which it made a series of allegations concerning the possible falsification of documents granting Ecuadorian nationality to the player Byron David Castillo Segura, as well as the possible illegibility of the said player to participate in eight qualifying matches of the national team of the Ecuadorian Football Association (FEF) in the preliminary competition of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™.

At issue is the eligibility of Ecuador defender Byron Castillo, who played in South American qualifying matches for a La Tri team that earned a spot in this ...

Thanks to the three points it earned via FIFA’s reversal of the result, Peru finished fifth in the South American qualifying standings and earned its first World Cup bid since 1982 by beating New Zealand in the intercontinental playoffs. Ecuador was drawn into Group A of the World Cup along with Qatar, Senegal and Netherlands. However, if FIFA disqualifies Ecuador and Peru becomes an automatic qualifier, the validity of the draw could be called into question. Chile, which played Ecuador twice with Castillo on the field, would leapfrog into fifth place past Colombia, which would earn a spot in next month’s intercontinental World Cup playoffs against either Australia or the United Arab Emirates. Last week, the Chilean soccer federation filed a complaint with FIFA over Castillo’s eligibility to compete for Ecuador, claiming Castillo was born in Tumaco, Colombia, in 1995, and not in General Villamil Playas, Ecuador, in 1998, as stated on his official papers. FIFA’s statement Wednesday said it is investigating “possible falsification of documents” in Castillo’s case. Ecuador’s soccer federation, FEF, decried Chile’s claims as “unfounded rumors” in a statement last week.

FIFA and EA Sports are parting ways by mutual consent and the future of football games is as open as the Man United back four.

Does Konami have the kind of money EA balked at, to splash on a license for FIFA eFootball? Probably not. It’s always on sale for about £20 quid the day after Christmas and EA is even giving this year’s FIFA away to PS Plus subscribers, sparking suggestions the game might go free-to-play and focus even harder on those microtransactions Maybe we will see EA Sports go back to the drawing board and revive its stale football game to secure its audience from a potential coup carrying the official FIFA name? Sure, FIFA will look to sell the license to another publisher. Right now, we don’t know enough to make a definitive judgement on the winners, losers, and where the future of football games lies in a post-EA Sports FIFA world. OPINION: FIFA and EA Sports are parting ways by mutual consent and the future of football games is as open as the Man United back four.

Chile finished seventh with 19 points but Eduardo Carlezzo, a lawyer for the Chilean FA, told Reuters that if Chile was given the points from the two games against Ecuador in which Castillo played it would go to the World Cup in its place. If it lost points for the games in which Castillo appeared it could miss out on a place in Qatar. "FIFA has decided to open disciplinary proceedings in relation to the potential ineligibility of Byron David Castillo Segura with regard to the above-mentioned matches," FIFA said in a statement.
