Curacao produced one of the biggest stories of the FIFA World Cup, holding Ecuador to a historic 0-0 draw to earn the nation's first-ever point on football's biggest stage. With a population of just around 150,000, Curacao became the smallest nation by population to claim a World Cup point, surpassing Iceland's previous record. Goalkeeper Eloy Room was the hero of the night, making a record 15 saves to frustrate Ecuador and secure a memorable result just days after Curacao's 7-1 defeat to Germany. The remarkable draw marked a landmark moment for the Caribbean nation and its footballing history.
