What is the secret of Curaçao's success? Intimate relations during the gathering, authorized by the social worker

After a 7-1 defeat to Germany, Curaçao earned its first historic point in a World Cup as it drew 0-0 with Ecuador. A surprise result for the smallest country to have qualified for a World Cup and one that hides a secret that contrasts with the choices made by other, more highly-rated national teams.
There is no armored team gathering, instead the players from the Caribbean country are in their rooms with… their wives and fiancées. The one who authorizes this special provision was the Federation's social doctor, Dr. Suzanne Huurman, who has also advised the footballers to have intimate relations on the nights before the match to relieve stress or better manage emotions.
A choice that the only female social worker of the tournament has given her explanation. 'On such a long tour, having family around reduces a little homesickness and brings peace of mind,' said Huurman. 'Many of our footballers do not play at the highest levels of world football. For many families it would be very expensive to travel and stay in the US for weeks. Sex? Yes, I believe it can help, but perhaps more on an emotional level than for a direct physiological effect.'
