Ecuador's Piero Hincapie became the second player to be issued a red card at the World Cup under FIFA's new rule that calls for a player to be sent off for covering their mouth during a confrontational exchange with an opponent.
Ecuador secured a sensational, headline-making 2-1 win over Germany in their final Group E FIFA World Cup clash at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on June 25, registering a place in the round of 32 and in the World Cup knockouts for only the second time.
