Piero Hincapié

Piero Hincapié is an Ecuador centre-back, a quick, aggressive, left-footed defender who starred for Bayer Leverkusen's title-winning side and is regarded as one of the best young defenders in the world.

He was sent off in stoppage time against Mexico for covering his mouth during a heated argument, a breach of a strict tournament directive, capping a miserable night for Ecuador.
