Card 2 — Drama / narrative hook

Germany were 22 minutes from a very ugly conversation.
Then Undav happened.
Subbed on. Equalizer. 90+4' winner. Knockout ticket punched.
That is not a comfortable win. That is a World Cup escape act. 4

Unpopular take: Curaçao's 0-0 felt louder than some wins.
Eloy Room made 15 saves, per ESPN, the most by a goalkeeper in a 90-minute World Cup match since records began in 1966. 4
A first World Cup point for Curaçao. A clean sheet under siege. A night people will remember.
