Atlanta: Cape Verde produced one of the biggest surprises of the 2026 FIFA World Cup by holding European champions Spain to a goalless draw in their tournament debut. Ranked 67th in the world, the African side frustrated Spain throughout the match with a disciplined defensive display. Spain dominated possession and created several chances, but failed to find a breakthrough despite introducing star forward Lamine Yamal in the second half. Goalkeeper Vozinha made a series of important saves to preserve the clean sheet. Cape Verde nearly secured a famous victory late on, but the match ended 0-0 in Atlanta.
