Africa-Press – Cape verde. Cape Verde and Angola drew today in the game they played at the Cape Verdeans’ home, at the start of group D of the African qualification for the 2026 Football World Cup.
Both ‘tubarões’ and ‘palancas’ played a weak, uninspired game with no chances to score, so the match ended with 0-0 on the scoreboard. Angola had a slight rise in the first half, but without justifying the goal, reveals Lusa.
The group winner will qualify directly for the World Cup, with Cameroon being the big favorite for the spot.
Cuca, from União de Leiria, was a starter in Cape Verde’s eleven and Hélio Varela, from Portimonense, and João Correia, from Desportivo de Chaves, were substitutes used.
Angola, coached by the Portuguese Pedro Gonçalves, presented Kialonda Gaspar and Manuel Keliano, from Estrela da Amadora, as starters.
In the next round, Angola plays in Mauritius and Cape Verde visits Eswatini, on Tuesday, concludes this newspaper’s source.
