    I’m glad someone else said it. I found the endless tiki taka tedium to be a complete turn-off. They’re not much easier to watch now. So much talent and they’re an absolute snore.

    Have to admit I’m rooting for Cape Verde here. Don’t want to jinx them!

    It has happened a draw. Well done Cape Verde. I wish they could have scored.

    Spain were dreadful.

    I am supposed to be supporting Spain because of the sweepstake, and I was rooting for Cape Verde all the way through that match. I am so fickle!! 😁 ⚽️ 😎 πŸ˜„

    Hi everyone :) Amazing effort and team play by Cape Verde, that was so great to see them get a result. Really glad to see that smaller countries can compete at the World Cup and aren’t just there to make up the numbers. They worked so hard and got a point against Spain who have beaten pretty much everyone recently. Cape Verde really deserved this point and I liked reading the comments from their goalkeeper in his interview :)
