Cape Verde stunned South American heavyweight Uruguay with a goal in the 21st minute in their group-stage match at the FIFA World Cup 2026 in Miami on Sunday.
Kevin Pina stepped up for a Cape Verde free-kick and found the net with a shot from distance, becoming the first goalscorer from his country in the tournament.
It was the the tournament second goal to be scored directly from a free-kick after Nathan Saliba found the net for Canada against Qatar on June 18.
