Brilliant Curaçao make Gold Cup history

HOUSTON, WILLEMSTAD - It was a night to remember for Curaçao in Houston on Friday.

After qualifying for the competition for just the second time ever, the island nation made history against Honduras.

Leandro Bacuna netted the country’s first ever Gold Cup goal to give them a first half lead.

And the heroics of Eloy Room – who pulled off fifteen saves – saw them clinch the win.

With two group games gone, they now have every chance of reaching the knockout rounds.
