“No game in this tournament has left me more baffled than this one. What the hell happened? On one hand, this is a historic match. Curaçao achieved a milestone as not just the smallest country to ever play in the World Cup, they are now the smallest country to ever earn a point at the World Cup. They can partially thank Ecuador’s incompetence, but they can mainly thank the Herculean effort of Eloy Room. The 37-year-old keeper was a brick wall, making save after save to earn Curaçao a historic draw. While that should be what this game is remembered for, I’m sadly going to remember it for another reason. I’m convinced this ref accidentally swallowed his whistle and was too scared to tell everyone because in the 2nd half, he just stopped making any calls. I’m fully with the argument of letting the players decide, but if he’s not gonna blow it when guys are getting physically pulled down to the ground, why even have him there? That ending was a complete mess and his antics drag this down. ”
