Miguel Loor, against those who criticize Ecuador under-20: “We are very destructive, we want everything for now”

Ecuador’s U-20 team will play for the fifth time in the World Cup in the category because they qualified for Indonesia 2023 by finishing fourth in the final hexagonal of the South American Conmebol. He did it thanks to the fact that he won for the first time in that phase, last Sunday, at the end of the tournament. The 2-1 result gave the Tricolor the last ticket in dispute because dates before Brazil, Uruguay and the host Colombia sealed their tickets.

And although the National Team could not defend the title it obtained in 2019, because it was lower than in 2017, when the runner-up was reached; Since they only won two out of nine games and conceded more goals than they scored (eleven against eight for a negative balance of minus three), the objective of reaching the highest FIFA tournament was met.

zero reviews

However, from the recent statements by Jimmy Blandón and Pool Gavilánez, former players who are now coaches, against those who question, it can be deduced that there is nothing that can be criticized against Ecuador and DT Jimmy Bran because he qualified. Four defeats and a bad football level are just anecdotes.

Miguel Ángel Loor, president of the LigaPro, is aligned with the same position as Blandón and Gavilánez. It is not time to question anything. The manager, former secretary of Barcelona SC at the start of the Eduardo Maruri administration, spoke on social networks.

“We are very destructive. They gave this Selection a stick as if we should be champions just by showing up. I saw tweets criticizing the national coaches, the clubs, the league, etc. Sometimes everything doesn’t go the way you want, but the important thing is that (Ecuador) is getting used to always being at the top. That is worth a lot,” Loor posted.

‘Let them live and suffer’

The head of the LigaPro made a sobering comment: “We want everything for NOW, we are not willing to understand and live with the processes. Lose, suffer, try, be wrong, hit, etc. That the Ecuadorian DTs live and suffer, this is necessary and mandatory for their future success”.

Loor continued on his Twitter account with the usual congratulations and although he cites the Albiceleste, it is worth clarifying that the current world champion in the sub-20 division is Ukraine. The leader says: “Countries like Argentina (current world champion), Chile, Peru, were left out (of the youth World Cup). Let’s value, enjoy, support, so you can also win. Congratulations to the FEF, Jimmy Bran and all these spectacular boys, Ecuador once again a World Cup player”.

He also referred to the statement that Franklin Salas made in recent days about the Tricolor sub-20 (“the group got out of hand for Jimmy Bran). “I joined the group in Bogotá, for personal reasons I was not in Cali. I have had enough time to see the group’s performance and I can tell you that everything is within the norm,” Loor commented. (D)
