Curacao's goalkeeper Eloy Room made 15 saves against Ecuador, the most by any goalie in a single game since 1966. This heroic effort secured a 0-0 draw, earning Curacao their first point of the FIFA World Cup 2026 and keeping their knockout stage hopes alive. Room, who plays for Miami FC, called it "almost a perfect game."
