A tiny Caribbean island called Curacao with barely 1.5 lakh people, has just pulled off one of the greatest underdog stories in modern football, they’ve qualified for the FIFA World Cup. Yes, the same Curacao that India could out-populate before lunchtime. Their historic qualification isn’t just a headline, it’s a wake-up call for Indian football.
A Night That Changed Everything for Curacao
On Tuesday, Curacao battled Jamaica to a gritty 0-0 draw, and that single point was enough to send shockwaves through world football. The final whistle blew, and the players collapsed in tears – they’d done the impossible. Not only is this their first-ever World Cup appearance, but they’re now the smallest-populated nation in history to reach the tournament, overtaking Iceland’s famous 2018 run.
