One striker, two sitters

Hellish week for Ecuadorian 'marksman'

One striker, two sitters

How was your week, last week? Fair to middling? Chances are it was better than Ecuadorian under 20's striker Marlon de Jesus.

It's cruel to say it but Marlon may struggle to force his way into the reckoning for the next fixture after moumental misses against Uruguay and Argentina in the space of a week. In fact, to be more accurate, in the space of just four days.

Chin up Marlon. Nobody saw. Except the entire international online community.
