Cape Verde centre back Roberto 'Pico' Lopes has spent his entire career in Ireland, ignored a LinkedIn message from Cape Verde FA asking him to play for them because it was in Portuguese. A year later, they sent it in English. He accepted. An all-time great World Cup story.
The fact that Cape Verde sent everyone forward in the 90th minute because they wanted to beat (NOT draw) Spain is everything that makes the World Cup beautiful.
What an incredible draw.
I was yesterday-years old when I found out Salt Lake City had Rice-Eccles Stadium as a bid for this World Cup as late as the second round of bidding. Kinda glad we didn't get it, we would've been the second lowest capacity stadium and imagine the traffic in SLC
