Castillo rode the bench in the game against the Spurs that the toffees tied 0-0.</p>
<p><strong>Felipe Caicedo</strong><br />
Caicedo played 63 minutes in the Manchester Derby against United. He couldn&#8217;t do anything because of Rio Ferdinand&#8217;s excellent marking.</p>
<p><strong>Antonio Valencia</strong><br />
Antonio’s team Wigan again lost away against West Brom 3-1. Valencia looked very sharp the whole 90 minutes but couldn’t do anything to bring his team back.</p>
<p><strong>Edison Mendez</strong><br />
PSV finished the league with a clear victory against Willem II 3-0. Mendez missed the match because he is serving his suspension of the red card he was shown last week.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Benitez &amp; Pedro Quiñónez</strong><br />
Santos lost a important game against Atlante away 1-2 and thus didn&#8217;t go to the liguilla. Benitez didn&#8217;t play because of  his injury he had last week. Pedro played for the beginning 18 minutes and then was subbed for a forward because his team needed a victory and they were already down by two.</p>
<p><strong>Walter Ayovi</strong><br />
Monterrey got dominated away to Pumas in a game that ended 3-0. Even though they lost, they are still in the liguilla. Walter played the whole game.</p>
<p><strong>Aragon Espinoza</strong><br />
Standard of Belgium won against FC Bruges and have to wait until the next match to see if they win the title for the league. Aragon is till riding the bench.</p>
<p><strong>Joffre Guerron</strong><br />
Getafe thrashed Osasuna 3-0 at home and the three points couldn&#8217;t have come at a better time since they are involved in the relegation battle. Guerron has moved up from looking at the game from home to looking at it from the bench.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Noboa</strong><br />
Cristian played exceptional in the victory over FK Tom&#8217; Tomsk which his team won comfortably 4-0.</p>
<p><strong>Luis Bolanos</strong><br />
Good news! His contract has ended with Santos FC and there is a strong possibilities of him going to Internacional of Porto Alegre and actually get play time.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Lara</strong><br />
Deportivo Pereira made a huge comeback playing against Millionarios. They were down by two goals in half-time but with the introduction during the start of the second half of Lara, he helped his team leave the game with three points with the score 3-2. The two last goals were scored at the last 3 minutes of the game.</p>

<strong>Segundo Castillo </strong><br />
Castillo played the last three minutes of the game Sunderland vs. Everton which ended 0-2 in favor of the toffees.</p>
<p><strong>Felipe Caicedo</strong><br />
Caicedo made it on the score sheet again when he scored the opener against Blackburn Rovers in a game that ended 3-1. He ended up getting booked for taking his shirt off during the celebration of his goal, I don&#8217;t see why he did it in the first place, the goal wasn&#8217;t that even that impressive or scored at the last minute..<br />
<embed src="http://rd3.videos.sapo.pt/play?file=http://rd3.videos.sapo.pt/z51J41lEavH1tKMw2ZSU/mov/1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="349"></embed><strong>Antonio Valencia</strong><br />
Antonio’s team Wigan drew against Bolton Wanders. Valencia looked very sharp the whole 90 minutes but couldn’t do anything to bring his team the three points at home.</p>
<p><strong>Edison Mendez</strong><br />
PSV tied against NEC Niemengen 1-1 at home. At the 83rd minute of the game Edison was shown a red card for a bad tackle on the opponent.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Benitez &amp; Pedro Quiñónez</strong><br />
Cristian Benitez dislocated his arm in the victory of Santos Laguna over San Luis at home. Benitez was carried away to see the severity of his injury. Pedro on the other hand played the whole 90 minutes.</p>
<p><strong>Walter Ayovi</strong><br />
Despite Ayovi&#8217;s amazing performance, Monterry lost 2-3 against America at home. Below are the extended hightlights:</p>

Standard of Belgium tied but Aragon is still rides the bench for his comments about the possible transfer to Benfica in the summer.</p>
<p><strong>Joffre Guerron</strong><br />
Getafe is continuing its losing streak against Mallorca 2-1. As usual Guerron wasn’t even on the bench. Apparently not even the new manager didn&#8217;t give him a chance. Getafe is getting ever so closer to get relegated.</p>

Rubin Kazan thrashed Saturn Moscow 5-0. Noboa came off the bench at the 71st minute and scored at the 85th minute.</p>

Meet Neymar. Sure he is quick, so is Nike&#8217;s editing team, but has he scored a goal at a FIFA Club World Cup or scored numerous times and won the Copa Libertadores?? I know he is young and will have his opportunities but it is a shame a talent like Luis, that at a young age he accomplished something historical in Ecuadorian football, is being wasted on the bench.</p>

Castillo&#8217;s Everton had a exciting match at home when they received Aston Villa. The game ended a tie 3-3 and Segundo now played right bench and didn&#8217;t even see a minute of play time.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Benitez &amp; Pedro Quiñónez</strong><br />
Santos Laguna finally won 2-0 against the Jaguares. Cristian Benitez scored a beautiful second goal to assure the victory. Pedro came in at the 66th minute as a  substitute. Below are the highlights of the game:(Benitez&#8217;s goal at 4:40)<br />
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WcIm95QbMtA&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WcIm95QbMtA&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />
If only he could do stuff like that during the qualifiers&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Antonio Valencia</strong><br />
Valencia participated the whole game in Wigan&#8217;s lost over England giants Arsenal. The game ended 1-4 in favor of the visiting side. The last two goals were scored right when the game was about to end. (I&#8217;m telling you, it&#8217;s that <a href="http://ecuador.worldcupblog.org/1/the-curse-of-the-last-minute-goal-strikes-again-and-again.html">curse</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Edison Mendez</strong><br />
Mendez again played a vital role in PSV’s win over FC Utrechon. He played the whole 90 minutes. Due to the lack of form this season for PSV, AZ Alkmaar is virtually now the new champions of the Eredivisie League for the first time since 1981.</p>
<p><strong>Aragon Espinoza</strong><br />
Standard won their game against Lokeren 1-0. Aragon was still on the bench after the comments he said last week about the possibility of him moving to Portugal giants Benefica in the summer.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Noboa</strong><br />
Noboa played his first full game of the season against Terek Gronzi which his team won 2-1.</p>
<p><strong>Joffre Guerron</strong><br />
Guerron’s team Getafe which are currently fighting the relegation battle, won a important game away against Sevilla 0-1. Guerron ended up watch the game from the comfort of his own home. Lately the fans are asking him to play put the manager doesn&#8217;t think that it is a good idea.</p>
<p><strong>Felipe Caicedo</strong><br />
Felipao’s team Manchester City lost again 1-3 at home to Fulham. Caicedo wasn&#8217;t considered even to be on the bench. Hopefully starting this summer he will find a club that will let him start.</p>
<p><strong>Carlos Tenorio</strong><br />
After a long abstance due to a serious injury. Tenorio played against Al Garrafa in a game that ended up a tie 1-1 and Al Garrafa champions. It is good to see Tenorio getting play time again in his team,<br />
Al Sadd of Qatar.</p>
<p><strong>Walter Ayovi</strong><br />
Monterry tied the derby against Tigres away 0-0. Ayovi played the whole game.</p>
<p><strong>Luis Bolaños</strong><br />
Santos beat Palmeiras 2-1 in the first leg of the semifinal of the Torneo Paulista. As usual, Bolaños didn&#8217;t even see a second of play.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Lara</strong><br />
Deportivo Pereira lost against La Equidad 3-5 at home and Lara scored. La Equidad had two players sent off with red cards and Deportivo still couldn&#8217;t win.</p>
<p><strong>Ivan Hurtado</strong><br />
Millionarios tied against  Real Cartagena 0-0 away. Hurtado played the whole 90 minutes.</p>

<p><strong>Segundo Castillo &amp; Antonio Valencia</strong><br />
A clash of Ecuadorians happened on Sunday. Segundo&#8217;s Everton thrashed Valencia Wigan with a score of 4-0. Valencia played until the 71 minute. Then was substituted for Daniel De Ridder. Sadly Castillo played right bench and didn&#8217;t see even a few minutes on the pitch considering Everton was winning 4-0 since the sixty-first minute. The problem with Castillo is not that he is not in good form, the problem is that Fellani is having a awesome debut season with 5 goals (most of the goals were important goals) and a assist. While Castillo&#8217;s debut was impressive scoring in the UEFA Cup against our own Aragon&#8217;s Standard of Belgium, he has failed to make as big of a impact as Fellani has.</p>
<p><strong>Edison Mendez</strong><br />
Mendez played a vital role in PSV&#8217;s win over Sparta Rotterdam on the road that ended 0 -2. He played until the 89th minute and then he was substituted to get a standing ovation from the crowd of Rotterdam for his performance.</p>
<p><strong>Aragon Espinoza</strong><br />
Standard won their game against Beerschot 3-1. Aragon was sent to the bench by his manager after the comments he said earlier in the week about the possibility of him moving to Portugal giants Benefica in the summer.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Noboa</strong><br />
Ecuador&#8217;s super sub played left bench in FK Rubin Kazan&#8217;s draw against FC Moscow. </p>
<p><strong>Joffre Guerron</strong><br />
Guerron&#8217;s team Getafe lost 4-1 away to Valencia. Guerron wasn&#8217;t even on the bench. His team are currently fighting the relegation battle and the matches that are coming up for them include Sevilla, Barcelona, and Real Madrid.</p>
<p><strong>Felipe Caicedo</strong><br />
Felipao&#8217;s team Manchester City lost 2-0 away to England Giants Arsenal. Caicedo didn&#8217;t make it to the game because he didn&#8217;t get there in time back from the World Cup Qualifiers.</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Benitez</strong><br />
Santos Laguna tied at home 2-2 thanks to Benitez and the Colombia Carlos Quintero. It&#8217;s weird that he can score for Santos Laguna and even make a assist in the same game but not net at least one in representing his country but I digress. For those wondering, Quiñónez wasn&#8217;t even on the bench.</p>
<p><strong>Walter Ayovi</strong><br />
In my opinion this was the most attractive game of Mexico. Monterry received Atlas and tied 2-2. In the first half Chilean Humberto Suazo and Felipe Baloy were both shown red cards and Monterey came back from two goals down to tie the game. Walter played the whole game.</p>
<p><strong>Luis Bolaños</strong><br />
Santos is going to the semis of the &#8220;Torneo Paulista&#8221; after beating Ponte Preta 3-2. Like other past games, Luis wasn&#8217;t considered for the game. It&#8217;s a shame that the manager thinks a 17 year old plays better than him&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Cristian Lara</strong><br />
Deportivo Pereira beat Huila 3-1 at home and as usual Lara played the whole game.</p>
<p><strong>Ivan Hurtado</strong><br />
Millionarios beat Deportivo Cali 1-0 at home. Hurtado played the whole 90 minutes.</p>
