The
Ecuador national football team is the national team of
Ecuador and is controlled by the Federación Ecuatoriana de Fútbol. It is historically one of the weakest teams in
CONMEBOL, but it has been recently on the rise, making their first
World Cup in
2002. There, an upset over
Croatia was not enough to get them into the second round. Their best finish in
Copa America was fourth in 1993 (they also finished fourth in the 'extra' South American Championship in 1959).
