00:00This 40-year-old goalkeeper is now a global star after putting in a historic World Cup performance against Spain.
00:06He kept Laminia Mal at bay and now has millions of new followers online, thanks to a shout-out from
00:11a Brazilian YouTube channel.
00:13This is Vozinha, the Cabo Verde goalkeeper, who is one of the oldest players to ever play at a World
00:19Cup.
00:20Cabo Verde have reached the tournament for the first time, and Vozinha kept a clean sheet in their opener against
00:25Spain.
00:25At half-time, Brazilian broadcaster Kaze TV encouraged viewers to help get Vozinha to 100,000 Instagram followers.
00:34The fans flocked to his account, and within a couple of hours of the game ending, Vozinha had gained more
00:39than 2 million new followers.
00:41It's an incredible start to the World Cup for the veteran keeper, and it could get even better.
00:47If Cabo Verde can pick up a win against either Uruguay or Saudi Arabia in their remaining group stage games,
00:54the Blue Sharks are almost certain to qualify for the knockout rounds.
00:57The journey might just be getting started for Cabo Verde and Vozinha.
