OBRIGADO CABO VERDE!

As we welcome home the world's most glamorous and heroic team from the FIFA World Cup USA 2026, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to Cabo Verde for further strengthening Africa's place on the global football stage, building on the historic achievements of Cameroon and Morocco.
The unforgettable clash between Cabo Verde and Argentina became one of the most watched matches of the tournament, reminding the world that football belongs to everyone. Your courage, passion, and determination inspired millions and demonstrated that greatness is not defined by size, but by belief, unity, and heart.
Congratulations, Cabo Verde. Africa is proud, and the football world applauds your remarkable journey.

“Cape Verde, Cabo Verde, a Miracle in Motion »

We have known all along that this team, and the wonderful people of these magnificent islands, possess enormous potential.
In football, we believed the vision would be fulfilled at the appointed time because all the ingredients for success were already there. When the team came to Paris a few years ago, we had the opportunity, in the presence of the Honorable Minister of Sports, the President of the Football Federation, and members of the Cape Verdean community in Paris, to encourage them.
We urged the players to embrace the mindset of success—to carry it in their hearts and minds—and to believe that anything is possible. We sought to awaken the fire within them. We told them they were a great team, capable of remarkable achievements, if only they believed in themselves.
What the world is witnessing today has always existed; it was simply waiting to be awakened.
Congratulations to the wonderful people of Cabo Verde, to its dedicated leadership and administration, and above all, bravo to the team.
May this be only the beginning of even greater accomplishments.
