53 min The distribution out of the back for Cape Verde has been atrocious. Hardly a second or two elapse between Vozinha collecting the ball and Uruguay taking it back.
52 min Lopes Cabral rips a shot from 25, wide by a considerable margin, then punches the air in frustration.
Should this result hold, Spain and Uruguay would be tied atop the group with four points each and virtually assured a spot in the round of 98, I mean, 32. Cape Verde and Saudi Arabia would have one point each heading into their meeting. Barring a wipeout in this half, Cape Verde would lead on goal difference, but that wouldnât come into play â a draw surely wouldnât put either team through.

FIFA World Cup 2026 LIVE updates: Uruguay come from behind against Cape Verde; Belgium see red in draw with Iran; Spain rout Saudi Arabia; New Zealand and Egypt in action today
Sunday is Father’s Day. Except, perhaps, for Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha.
The feel-good story of the World Cup is back on the field as Cape Verde takes on Uruguay in the second group-stage match for both teams. And Vozinha – whose name is Josimar Jose Evora Dias – will have his mother in the stands for that match; she was unable to attend Cape Verde’s stunning opening draw against Spain because she couldn’t obtain a visa.
Ana Candida Evora is there now, though – making Cape Verde’s story even better.
“I want to thank all the fans, everyone who helped in the process, for the support you gave to the team, especially to Cabo Verde,” Evora said in remarks distributed by FIFA in a video message. “We’re all rooting for Cabo Verde to play well, to shine on the pitch. The players need to have faith and everything will go well.
