Cape Verde young guns ready to deliver against Uruguay

  • Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha will have his family in the United States for Sunday's match against Uruguay, with his father, brother, and mother expected to arrive in Tampa ahead of the game.
  • The 40-year-old goalkeeper was named player of the match after Cape Verde held Spain to a goalless draw on Monday, the only debutant to avoid defeat in its first World Cup game.
  • Defender Sidny Lopes Cabral said the squad is "100 per cent" aware of underestimation, adding, "For me personally, I like to be the underdog because then I can show up more."
  • Supporters like Benjamin Ferrera in Massachusetts describe the team's World Cup appearance as "magnificent" for the 500,000 people on the islands, while organizer Andreia Levy of the 12 Sharks said the success feels like "fate."
  • Vozinha, named after Brazil's 1986 World Cup defender Josimar, prepares to face Real Madrid playmaker Federico Valverde as Cape Verde aims to build momentum at Miami Stadium on Sunday.
