Concedes two in loss
Room recorded one save and allowed two goals in Thursday's 2-0 loss to Cote D'ivoire.
Analysis: Room had a difficult end to the tournament, conceding two goals that were difficult to stop. It was not the performance he would have hoped to build on from his previous match, where he kept a clean sheet. He finished the campaign having conceded nine goals overall, though the task was always going to be a difficult one given Curacao's standing as the smallest country to ever qualify for the World Cup.
Massive outing against Ecuador
Room made 15 saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Ecuador.
Analysis: Room helped Curacao to its first-ever World Cup point with an impressive total of 15 saves, many of which were great reactions, while he also benefited from the opponents' poor aim to secure a clean sheet Saturday. Such number of shots stopped represented the most in a single 90-minute game in the history of the tournament. Furthermore, the outcome was diametrically opposed to that of his tournament debut against Germany, where he conceded seven goals. The keeper is now set to retain a starting role as his solid form is put to the test by an Ivory Coast side which scored one goal in each of the previous two games.
