Sidney Lopes Carbal’s story is amazing:
— In the 24/25 season he was playing in the 3rd division in Germany.
— 1st of July 2025 he signs for CF Estrela Amadora.
— He performs really well for CF Estrela Amadora getting 6 goals and 4 assists and earns a move to Benfica and officially joins the club on the 1st of January!
What’s funny is he even scored in his first start for Benfica against his old club Estrela and wins MOTM.
After the Prestianni racially abusing Vini Jr incident, Carbal asked for his Vini’s shirt after the game & they phased him out of the team.
Before the tournament started he joined Trabzospor in Turkey for £6M
He’s now just gone and scored the goal of the 2026 World Cup to make it 2-2 against the World champions Argentina.
What a mental last 18 months he’s had. Also worth pointing out that’s he’s two footed and can play LB, LWB, RW, LW.
What a game of football. Can’t believe what I just watched.
Didn’t even feel like they didn’t belong, they went punch for punch for large large stretches of the match. On and off the ball.
I genuinely can’t believe how good they were tonight. Unbelievable. That’ll hurt that.
🚨🗣️ 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Leo Messi: "We saw what Cape Verde did vs Spain and Uruguay."
"We knew it was going to be difficult. Nobody is easy in the knockouts."
"Sometimes people underrate other countries, but we were sure it was going to be tough."
I really need CAF and the federations for these teams to get their act together. Look at the talent you have. Look at what they can do with the little you’re giving them. Just dream a little, give them a chance.
🚨🎙️Lionel Messi:
“We knew this would be a very tough match. In the World Cup, no one gives you anything for free. Now it’s about resting, learning from today, and focusing on the next game. Also congratulations to Cape Verde for that great performance ”
