Anyone else watch the Ecuador-Curaao game in World Cup last night? [View all]

Holy shamoley, what a defensive marvel! On both sides, really, but especially on Curaçao''s. The ball was in their backfield for what seemed like 90% of the second half, but Ecuador could not score! Could NOT, despite repeated and clever attempts. The defenders were amazing, but I am in absolute awe of Curaçao's keeper, Eloy Room, who made save after save and kept coming back for more. And despite their thrashing from Germany, they're still in and Ecuador is out! Just amazing.
