Italy will appeal to the FIFA ranking in case Ecuador is left out of Qatar

After the harsh defeat against North Macedonia by 1 to 0, which meant the elimination for the World Cup for Italy, now they are waiting for the resolution of the case that involves the Ecuadorian National Team that also keeps Chile in suspense.

Faced with this situation, the sports director, Franco Chimentiwas excited about a possible classification of Italy: “There is a possibility that it will be rescued for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, a much more concrete possibility than everyone thinks”.

“It seems that Ecuador used a non-Ecuadorian player who did not have the right to play. And for that he could pay. There is talk of possibility but there are extremes of that happening”he added in statements to the Italian press.

Of the chance that the Italian refers to is that of the FIFA Ranking, in which the “Azurra” is in sixth position, and according to a rule that marks the regulations of the highest entity in football, the place would be for the cast of Robert Mancini.

“There is a FIFA rule that speaks of repechage and the highest team in the ranking: and this is certainly Italy”Chimenti concluded.
