Eloy Room

Leads Curacao in goal

Room has been named in Curacao's World Cup squad and is expected to start every fixture in the island nation's historic debut tournament appearance.

Analysis: Room shares Curacao's all-time appearance record on 69 caps, bringing unrivalled experience and leadership to the most important campaign in the nation's football history. His familiarity with the American football environment from his time at Columbus Crew and now at Miami FC is an added advantage heading into a group stage played on home turf for their opponents. Room heads into the World Cup as the undisputed number one and one of the most important figures in a squad making history.
