Mondial 2026 : En visite au Portugal, le président capverdien évoque le choc Argentine - Cap Vert
After an improbable qualification for the Round of 32 of the 2026 World Cup, Cape Verde faces Argentina this Friday, July 3rd. A match that will certainly not be easy for the Blue Sharks. Nevertheless, they should be expected to put up a very strong fight.
"Our destiny in this World Cup is to face champions."
The president of the Archipelago, José Maria Neves, has also stated that his country is not afraid of any great football nation.
“Our destiny in this World Cup is to face champions. We have no fear and we go there with the same faith and the same hope, above all with the same energy, the same dedication, the same character and the same determination that have allowed us to build Cape Verde over these 50 years,” the leader said during a trip to Coimbra in Portugal.
Mr. Neves remains very confident ahead of the kickoff of this match, which appears very lopsided on paper. "For us, statistics don't matter much. What counts is the effort we put in on the pitch to demonstrate our energy, our resilience, and our ability to perform. We will be facing another champion, as has become the norm in this World Cup," declared the Cape Verdean number 1.
"Cape Verde has already won its Cup"
He expects goalkeeper Vozinha to deliver another outstanding performance to lead his team. In any case, the official asserts, "Cape Verde has already won its Cup."
The outcome of this match against the world champions will not change anything.
