People are treating Cabo Verde like they are not a challenging team simply because they are unfamiliar with the country. Anyone who watched African football for the past 5 years knows they’re one of the teams you’d dread going up against.
Cape Verde would have qualified for the World Cup if there had been 32 teams instead of 48
They topped a qualifying group with Cameroon
This is a proper, proper team
Morocco should be used as an example for all these countries trying to compete with the big boys
Invest heavily in stadiums, youth players & see if you can tap a couple players up that have dual nationality.
It will take years to achieve but it will be worth it.
When they hosted AFCON and I seen the stadiums over there I was blown away that country is serious about football.
A lot of people claimed that the World Cup in the US would be a disaster for traveling fans, and that Americans didn’t care enough to be a great host
And while it’s been far from perfect, the WC has once again proved that once it starts, there’s nothing better in sports
I don’t know man, it sure seems like this World Cup has been an absolutely massive success after some very angry Europeans complained about nothing for a few weeks
Portugal's official World Cup campaign.🇵🇹🇵🇹
🗣 Cristiano Ronaldo:
"Let's go guys. It's our time..."
My favourite line:
"Call us dreamers, but a dream dreamed by many, it's no longer a dream... It's destiny."🇵🇹🥶🏆
