Oscar Ibáñez of Peru sacked as well after failing to qualify. (Worse, football being the main sport there, unlike Venezuela.)
With Ricardo Gareca stepping down for Chile earlier in the campaign that's all 3 South American teams that didn't qualify sacking their managers. If I was Oscar Villegas of Bolivia I'd be pretty worried about losing the play-off.
Given it'll be the 60th anniversary next year do we think we'll get the 1966 World Cup Final shown on television again?

Was on channel 4 during COVID time as a watch along with people who were there . Like Roy Hodgson and some Geoff chap who actually looked very well for 83 when I saw him live earlier in the year .
It was repeated on Channel 4 during the height of the pandemic. It's also available on YouTube either in black and white or fully colourised.
Ah missed that, would have been a good watch. Wonder if it's still available somewhere. Will definitely watch it at some point.
