🚨🚨| 𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐑𝐃: Cabo Verde are the 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐌 to score their first ever World Cup goal from a direct free kick (since 1966). 🌟🇨🇻

[WelBeast @WelBeast]

All AFCON teams have one thing in common when they attack, as soon as they reach the final 3rd, they run out of ideas and will do anything with the ball but score.

The World Cup “dark horses” 🥴

Türkiye:
➖ 76% possession, 62 shots, 0 goals
➖ Most attempts without a goal in two-game span at World Cup

Belgium:
➖ Only goal scored has been an Egypt OG
➖ 69 shots at World Cups since a Belgium player last got on scoresheet

Ecuador:
➖ 39 shots, 4.06 xG, 0 goals
➖ 15 shots on target vs. Curaçao, who conceded 7 goals to Germany

Cape Verde beating Saudi and going unbeaten in group stage would be the craziest debut to a WC ever

🚨 Kylian Mbappé when asked about Cristiano and Messi’s longevity: “I won’t be playing football at 40 years old…

…you guys would have kicked me out by then!”. 😃

E esse Uruguai x Espanha na última rodada virou uma briga de foice no escuro. Obrigado por nos proporcionar isso, Cabo Verde

[Fußball Hank Hill 🇺🇲🇩🇪 @BayernAusBoston]

Expanding this World Cup to 48 teams was a mistake, now we got teams like Belgium, Uruguay, Turkey, and Ecuador actively diluting this tournament for the worst

[Fran @frabigol]

Los arqueros de Cabo Verde y Curazao son buenos, pero por lejos el MEJOR arquero del mundial es Alireza Beiranvand.

No es normal el arquero de Iran, buen juego con los pies, sale perfecto a cortar los centros y encima tiene reflejos de gato. Parece un arquero de Premier League.

[Peñargrol @CAPArgento__]

si uruguay se queda afuera contra cabo verde y arabia saudita es para que les saquen los 71 mundiales que dicen que tienen

CAPE VERDE'S FIRST-EVER WORLD CUP GOAL IS AN ABSOLUTE STUNNER OF A FREE KICK 😱

[Kevín @KevOnStage]

Cape Verde realistically have a chance to go thru don’t they? Spain beat Uruguay and all they have to do is draw correct?

[(fan) Trey @UTDTrey]

Cape Verde has to be the one country at the World Cup no one wants to see fail

[ESPN FC @ESPNFC]

It may be Cape Verde's first-ever World Cup, but they aren't just happy to be here 🇨🇻🔥

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨 Declan Rice: “It’s an obscene amount of games. The schedule was crazy, but what can we do about it? You can’t sit and complain”.

“We have to just get on with it for the moments like I had winning that Premier League”, told Telegraph.

Ugarte is a great example for all the young and inspiring holding midfielders out there.

Watch him, and you’ll know exactly what not to do.

[Neal 🇦🇺 @NealGardner_]

I’m speechless. In awe. A little bit lost for words…

First of, Cape Verde — you are simply the story of the World Cup. Them getting out of this group, going undefeated with Uruguay AND Spain, would be one of the greatest underdog stories in World Cup history.

[Neal 🇦🇺 @NealGardner_]

The lowest ranked team in the competition are currently odds on to top a group with Belgium, Egypt and Iran…

I LOVE this World Cup!!!!

[Neal 🇦🇺 @NealGardner_]

I’ve been scratching my head with this: what would you say has been the biggest upset at the World Cup thus far?

There are sooo many to choose from.

🚨🎙️| Zlatan Ibrahimović:

🗣️“After watching this tournament and today’s 2-2 draw, I have to say I was impressed. I don’t think African football gets the recognition it deserves. The quality, intensity, and confidence these teams play with is incredible.”

“People always talk about Europe and South America, but Africa belongs in that conversation too. If you’re still underestimating African football, you’re simply not watching the games.”

@Footballtweet Easy answer. No brainer.
