Tim Howard, a United States men's national team legend, stands alone in World Cup history with his 16-save performance in the Americans' 2-1 Round of 16 loss to Belgium in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
But he may have been a bit worried on Saturday night, when Curacao goalkeeper Eloy Room made 15 saves in a scoreless draw against Ecuador Saturday night in Kansas City to earn Curacao's first-ever World Cup point.
At least Room hopes so.
"A little bit annoyed that I don't have the record from Tim Howard, but I think he was sweating in front of the TV because I was close," Room quipped in his press conference after the match.
