African country Cape Verde is playing in the World Cup for the first time. On the other hand, Spain is the champion of the 2010 World Cup. The two teams face each other. Such a start is like a dream. Did Cape Verde think that they would stop the European champion Spain? Maybe not. But the result of the 90 minutes of play says that Spain could not score a goal. The Blue Circles, who are playing in the World Cup for the first time, got a valuable point.

Cape Verde and their goalkeeper Vozinia can get a big achievement. Holding the European champions until 85 minutes is no small feat! That’s what happened. Spain, who are desperate for a goal, are not able to take a good shot on goal.

In this situation, Lamine Yamal came on the field in the 71st minute, replacing Mikel Merino. Coach Luis de la Fuente wants to bet on Yamal, who has not fully recovered.

Cape Verde could not have had a better start. The team has blocked Spain with a closed jaw defense in the first 45 minutes. During this time, they have taken multiple shots on goal, and have had possession of the ball for a long time. However, the work has not been done.

Spain’s attack vs. Cape Verde’s defense-

Spain vs. Cape Verde Spain has been playing in a passing rhythm since the beginning of the match. But Cape Verde has started with five defenders from the beginning. Cape Verde seems to have learned this lesson after watching the Germany-Curacao match. The team is handling all of Spain’s attacks with its jaws clenched. Spain has attacked in the first quarter, and Cape Verde has stopped one after another.

With the absence of Yamal and Williams in the lineup, Spain’s two wings are not showing their normal play. The situation may change if they return in the second half.
