This decision is connected with new evidence of the substitution of the passport of the defender of the team Byron Castillo, according to the Daily Mail.

According to media reports, on June 9, Chile's lawyer Eduardo Carlezzo found evidence that the 23-year-old football player was Colombian.

For this reason, the athlete did not have the right to play for the Ecuadorian team.

It is noted that the lawyer found Castillo's birth certificate, which confirms the guess.

The tournament will be held from November 20 to December 18 in Qatar.

Earlier, the bureau of the council of the International Football Federation (FIFA) confirmed that the opening match of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar had been postponed.
