Cape Verde made a dream start to their first-ever World Cup appearance by securing a remarkable 0-0 draw against tournament favorites Spain in Atlanta. Ranked far below the European champions, the African nation produced a disciplined defensive display, led by veteran goalkeeper Vozinha, whose crucial saves frustrated Spain throughout the match. Despite dominating possession and creating numerous chances, Spain failed to find a breakthrough, even after the return of young star Lamine Yamal from injury. The result gives Cape Verde a valuable point and a major confidence boost, while Spain will need a stronger performance in their upcoming group-stage matches.
