Cape Verde coach: we brought honor to our country, proud of our players

The most disciplined team from Sub-Saharan Africa—respect.

Anyone who’s watched the match knows Romero’s incident—there wasn’t even a single card shown for stepping on an opponent’s foot.

The shock level is no less than that of Iceland in 2018.

Capable! Even after 80 minutes, the team’s three lines remained perfectly aligned—that’s the coach’s ability.

They committed the third-fewest fouls per match (teams with even fewer fouls were eliminated in the group stage); among all teams, they committed the fewest fouls in the group stage alone. They showed everyone that outstanding defense need not rely heavily on fouls—it can also be achieved through sound tactics, excellent tactical execution, and intense focus. A renowned coach demonstrated his ability by truly unifying a squad of Cape Verdean diaspora players from all corners of the world into a cohesive unit.

I'm also super proud of you guyz... well played well done 👍👏👏

Excellent player are born here, never look for famous player paid more, and worse preforming, look here liverpool

I call Cape Verde the den of lions. those guys have incredible hearts. what a stella performance!

Does Spain win just by talking tough? Act like a normal person.

The whole world is proud of you guys

Not your fault—this match was ruined by biased refereeing; no one could have won under these conditions.

I’m thinking Cape Verde scored both of their goals from open play, while Argentina’s two goals came from set pieces—doesn’t that make Cape Verde’s performance more impressive than Argentina’s? Don’t you think Argentina played poorly? Didn’t you hear what the Argentine players themselves said after the match? If individual talent is so superior, why couldn’t it change the outcome? Do you lack analytical ability and just blindly support Argentina while attacking others? It’s no wonder Argentina’s reputation suffers with fans like you. Also, although I’m not a German fan, I must say: Germany truly plays the role of Messi’s strict father—both at national team and club level.

Get lost! Get lost!

🍬 Anyone who scores in open play must be involved in a match with plenty of action. In Argentina’s last game, they failed to score a single goal from open play—clearly, Jordan dominated the match flow. If you can’t even understand a game like this and rely solely on stats, how dare you claim to have analytical skills? Your “analysis” is just comparing numbers, right?

Can you really get this worked up about it?

Where’s the nonsense? What exactly did they get wrong?

Then what’s the point of the midfield? Even top teams’ midfielders don’t press high anymore?

Flick is now being called a “possession maestro”? You’re just a World Cup–only fan. You can’t even explain Barcelona’s tactics clearly—unbelievable. Talking to you is a waste of time.

As an Argentine fan, I’ve never been this nervous before—even during the previous tournaments against France and the Netherlands.

Fun

Indeed, they played quite well.

Chapeau to u all 🫶🫶👏👏👏👏👏👏

The whole world is proud of you.

Africa is proud of you 💙💙💙💚💙
