What has changed since 2014? This is one of the many examples.
Curaçao, with a population of just 158,000, managed to score against Germany at the FIFA World Cup tonight.
There’s a lot to dislike about the way the tournament is organised this year in America but you got to love moments like this.

Great memories. ⚽️
