La Tri are yet to announce their World Cup squad.
Ecuador are participating in the FIFA World Cup for just the fifth time overall and for the second time in a row. They’ll also be expecting to do better than they did four years ago.
Despite taking four points from their three games, La Tri was unable to advance from their group in Qatar. Ecuador have actually only advanced past the group stage once, in 2006.
Ecuador had a fantastic 2026 qualifying campaign. They achieved their best result since the 2002 qualifying cycle, coming in second only to 2022 World Cup winners Argentina.
La Tri’s campaign gained momentum as it progressed. It includes notable victories at home against Argentina and away against Colombia, as well as a draw at home against Brazil.
Ecuador finished with eight victories and 29 points overall, losing the fewest games (two) of any CONMEBOL team. At the 2026 World Cup, Ecuador will play Germany, the Ivory Coast, and Curacao.

When will Ecuador announce the FIFA World Cup 2026 squad?
On June 1, 2026, Ecuador’s final 26-player team for the FIFA World Cup is set to be revealed.
The official tournament roster under head coach Sebastián Beccacece is anticipated to be unveiled on the June 1 deadline day, although the national team has submitted a preliminary list.
There must be a minimum of 23 players and a maximum of 26 in the final team. As a result, nearly all teams will have a maximum of 26 players.
The requirement that three of these players be goalkeepers is the only additional requirement. Other than that, Sebastián Beccacece has a lot of discretion over who he brings to the competition; some players are guaranteed spots in the squad provided they are fit, while others are competing to qualify.
When will Ecuador announce the FIFA World Cup 2026 final squad?
On June 1.
Which World Cup group are they in?
They are in Group E.
