Curacao, Ecuador and Eloy Room
21 June 2026
Curacao earned their first World Cup point with a 0-0 draw against Ecuador in Kansas City, led by Eloy Room’s 15 saves. The Miami FC goalkeeper equalled the men’s World Cup save record and kept Ecuador scoreless despite 28 shots.
Room set the tone with an early stop from Enner Valencia and continued denying close-range chances. Ecuador created more than three expected goals, but Curacao defended deep late on and now remain alive before facing Ivory Coast.
