Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha will have his family close by when his side takes on Uruguay on Sunday, days after his standout performance against Spain turned him into one of the early stories of the World Cup. The 40-year-old earned player-of-the-match honours in Cape Verde's goalless draw against Spain on Monday, a display that brought him international attention and a surge in popularity on social media.
Vozinha's father Jose Pedro said, "As a father, I feel immense pride. All Cape Verdeans right now feel proud to be Cape Verdean and of Cape Verde’s current performance; it’s something we could never have imagined would be possible. Like my father, I am immensely proud, and I know that all Cape Verdeans right now have their spirits and self-esteem sky-high."
