Qatar vs Ecuador: Opening ceremony and kick-off time, TV channel, stream FREE, team news for first 2022 World Cup match

Published on November 19, 2022 at 02:12 PM

The Qataris have never qualified for a World Cup before, but are the current Asian champions so will expect to put up a good fight in front of their own fans.

Opponents Ecuador have qualified for three previous World Cups, with their best previous finish coming in 2006 when they reached the last 16 before being beaten by a David Beckham free kick against England.

And they impressed in qualifying for this tournament, making it to Qatar with a game to spare as they picked up a fourth placed finish.

However, they were made to sweat on their place at the tournament after a complaint was filed about them fielding an ineligible player, but ultimately rebuffed by Fifa.
