Former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic commented on the performance of the Cape Verde national team at the 2026 World Cup.
Sport.Biz reports that in the 1/16 finals of the tournament, the team lost to Argentina with a score of 2:3 (0:1 in extra time).
"These kids are heroes. They have become legends on this small island; they are stars. It is worth noting that they did not lose a single match in regular time. They were very close to winning this game. I think the whole world did not believe that this was possible - or rather, only this small island believed.
I am 200% sure that when they return, they will be greeted with a grand celebration, with a red carpet. Their achievements will go down in history; they have made their dreams come true. While watching these scenes, I almost cried, savoring the moment. They were very close to success. This is football, this is emotion. We love it", - says "RMC Sport", quoting Ibrahimovic's words.
