Why Sarmiento chose Ecuador over England for Qatar 2022 World Cup 

I was born in USA but both my parents are Ecuadorian. Since I was little I dreamed of playing for Ecuador but never reached my dream. I’m proud of this kid for choosing the country he identifies with and hope he has a great career for club and country. Vamos Jeremy Sarmiento, Ecuador está contigo!

Your English accent. BRILLIANT!!!!!!! We Ecuadorians are so proud of U!!!!! ECUADOR represent and respect. The world will be yours young one. ✨🇪🇨🌟

I was born and live in California but my whole family is from Ecuador, I am so proud of our team! Go Ecuador 🇪🇨 💪 ❤️

Brighton are slowly becoming the Ecuadorian national team

Wow so proud of him, and will cheer up for him as an Ecuadorian raised in Spain and moved to England as well, proud ecuadorian. 🇪🇨 💗

Chucha madre bro ..i feel you !!! Pero para que veas . Man you made the whole nation proud! Thank you for everything that you guys did en el mundial.

We love him at the Albion, such maturity and style. So I will be routing for Ecuador today. A great interview in the Guardian with this player also gives me great hopes for Ecuador.

Sarmiento ha demostrado ser un jugador impecable. Es increible como algunxs ecuatorianxs quieren irse de su pais, mientras que Jeremy apesar de no haber nacido ni crecido en Ecuador. Él se enorgullece de sus raices y saca la cara por Ecuador. Literalmente estoy llorando de Orgullo. JEREMY ERES GRANDE 🇪🇨🔥

Proud of you man keep on representing us 🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨

Saw him play today against Qatar. He actually could have helped England since he is a good dribbling midfielder with ball retention everything English midfielders don't have. He is actually a better dribbler and ball handler than any of the English midfielders. So happy he chose to play for Ecuador.

I love my Ecuadorian people 🇪🇨❤

I was born in usa and my mom is from ecuador and my dad is from Costa Rica I am currently working hard to become pro and hopefully rep the ecuador national team or Costa Rica

OWWW. I always want to hear you speaking English, especially your accent...oww..what a blessing.... I am speechless.

I need more interviews like this one. I really live his accent 😍

Hopefully he will get more minutes at Brighton.

Choosing Ecuador over England..he knows ball.

So proud of you bro! Mucho amor desde 🇺🇾

Damn I am happy he chose Ecuador 🇪🇨 but if he went with Spain 🇪🇸 or England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 I could see more of him in the World Cup but there is next Cup 😊, miss u so much😭, Go Jer ❤✌ Edit : When he gets famous like Neymar and other players, I am leaving this here as a reminder I loved him before his fame 😂❤️

I like his British accents ❤

I always wondered wat it’s like to be a British/Ecuadorian lol I’m American/ecuadorian

Sarmiento is a youth product of Charlton Athletic and Benfica. Will be a great player soon.👌👌🙌🙌

Charge on!… never look back, but always remember who you are and be thankful for the experiences life has given you! Dream - and work your ass off!

Ooooooye ese pelado!!!!!! Bien hecho. Con acento británico jeje me alegra que al menos en el futbol se vayan profesionalizando.

I was born in Mexico and was brought to California at the age of 4. I’m 35 now and I can say cali is home for life but will always root for Mexico when it comes to football.

Im so sad that they lost their last game in the world cup and got eliminated

Viva Ecuador

Wow inspirational 👏

ojalá esté esté convocado en la lista para ir a Qatar 🇪🇨❤

VAMOS ECUADOR🇪🇨 I have them as dark horses

what a baller!!!

Not to worry, they all watch your games and point at you saying "i know him" 😌

Let’s be honest. The answer is simple. He wasn’t anywhere near the England team and saw an easier path towards an international career with Ecuador. Nothing wrong with that.

Could be the next bright future for Ecuador

As a Mexican is rare to hear a Latino with a English accent

Lets goooo, 🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨

🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨🔥🔥🔥 Ecuador fútbol

yessir represent pretty boy💪💪

We did believe Sarmiento. ❤

yessir sarmiento

He is my husband I have his match worn shirt from Ipswich ❤❤

Call up campana !

❤️

LFCCCCC❤❤❤❤❤

Crack

I wish you went to play for England

kid doesn’t wanna play san marino wise decision

"...other kids didn't want to play with me" 😭

💪🏼🇪🇨

Happy he chose Ecuador and got to feel the heartbreak first hand of not qualifying for the Round of 16 👏

"CHOOSE"

Dude didn't choose to play for Ecuador because he felt a deep connection with his parents home country... He chose Ecuador because he didn't have another option... Kind of sucks but I still wish him the best

Firmino's long lost brother

because thats his blood thats why

there’s no other choice. We have to go to ecuador lol. Not because he wanted it first, but because he had to. I don’t claim him.

Bellerin vibes😊

He low key looks like Rauw Alejandro

Jesús loves you-!!

#vidalNoVasAlMundial

I think he would have done a better job of taking the penalty kick against France. England is out of the world cup again😂

Simple, in England, you have no chance....overall, that is just the point

bc we wouldn't play at all for england

When someone chose a weaker team over a better team, is just because the bigger team didn't want you. End of story

Well he didn't really choose Equador over England did he because there's not a chance he would make the England team to begin with, let's be real it was Equador or nothing

Nice choice man, you get to throw matches for pay

Nose lo que dices mvd pero te amoo mi amorr

El mismo acento que tienen los paisanos que viven en Queens NY 🤣

look at those teeth

And now Ecuador is eliminated 😅

I wish him luck but I feel embarassed he is dying his hair blonde using fake colored contacts clearly he is ashamed of being a person of color

Bc he wouldn't start for England 11

Wow inspirational 👏
