Cape Verdean football manager and former centre-back
Cape Verde pushes Argentina to a dramatic 3-2 extra-time defeat after a stunning display by Vozinha; Messi secures late winner but the match becomes a showcase of Cape Verde’s historic World Cup run and the staying power of veteran forwards.
Cape Verde has reached the World Cup round of 32 and will play defending champion Argentina in Miami on July 3 after finishing second in Group H. The island debutants have drawn with Spain and Uruguay and held Saudi Arabia to 0-0, becoming the smallest country ever to reach the knockout stage in World Cup history.
