Curaçao goalkeeper Eloy Room, 37, makes a World Cup achievement that has not been matched since 1966, according to reporting by Newsweek and Yahoo Sports. Both outlets highlight that Room’s accomplishment involves his age while taking part in the tournament, describing it as a rare feat in World Cup history. The articles frame the moment as a statistical milestone and note that no player has done the same at the World Cup for roughly six decades. While the coverage emphasizes Room’s age and the rarity of the feat, it does not detail additional specifics beyond the comparison to 1966 and the claim that the record is unmatched “since 1966.” Overall, the two sources present the same core information: Room plays in the World Cup at 37, and this matches a long-standing historical benchmark dating back to 1966, marking it as a notable event in the tournament’s statistical record.
