Cabo Verde produced one of the biggest shocks of the 2026 World Cup so far in its opening match, holding reigning European champion Spain to a goalless draw.
The debutant was inspired by its veteran goalkeeper, who delivered a series of outstanding saves to keep La Roja at bay.
Uruguay also opened its Group H campaign with a surprise result, being held to a 1–1 draw by Saudi Arabia, a side developing a reputation for upsetting stronger opposition.
