I remember when people would ask where I’m from and I’d say Cape Verde and they wouldn’t know where that is. And now many people do ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻
I just watched a clip of Vozinha dragging his mates up after the game and vehemently insisting they literally keep their chins up.
A fuckin leader!
I hope these performances earn him one last shot at a European team, even if it’s for just 2 years so he can cash out & retire.
For folks that don't watch football much. It's not that Capo Verde, a tiny nation, managed to make it this far. It's that they made every team work for it. They weren't the classic minnow who played negative and scraped by. They were equals to Argentina today. Bravo. A classic.
Cape Verde is the size of Kansas City.
I promise you there’s hardly a person in that country that doesn’t personally know at least one player on that team.
Can you imagine how proud they must be of them?
Vozinha masterclass. Cape Verde masterclass. They’re the only country allowed to say “we’re killing ourselves for Africa”
I don’t even have the words. What a performance
Cape Verde, one of the smallest nations at the tournament, just took world champions Argentina to the brink of penalties. If this World Cup on American soil doesn’t make America fall in love with football, I don’t know what will.
