Ángel Lizardo Cheme Ortiz (born November 19, 1981 in Esmeraldas) in an Ecuadorian footballer. He played the majority of his professional career as Gonzalo Javier Chila Palma, and claimed a date of birth of December 9, 1984, thus enabling him to play in age-restricted matches for three years after he was entitled to do so.
In December 2010, Cheme was accused of aggravated identity theft by the actual Gonzalo Chila, an evangelical pastor in Guayaquil.[1] This led the Ecuadorian Football Federation (FEF) to investigate the accusations and apply any applicable punishments. FEF concluded that Cheme had used Chila's identity to play and was suspended for two years.[2]
