Cape Verde keeper is playing out of his mind and they have 11 dudes within 30 yards of their own goal while Spain has the ball.

So much for “we’ve already won by being here”. If that were the case they’d at least open it up a bit.

Not feeling good about Spain netting 3 goals.

Got to put one of Yamal or Williams in to starts the half and then bring another one on at 60 if it’s still 0-0

I can't really blame them. If the draw is there, take it. Never know what can happen if you can force a draw against the best team in the group with so many teams advancing out of groups this time around.

It's absolutely the play.

The the Greece '04 playbook. Everyone is concerned with Jogo Bonita but its tournament football. Survive and advance.

The dam will probably break in the second half though

On one hand it's admirable seeing a team that's clearly outclassed defend so valiantly. on the other I hate how effective haram ball is. Granted it's infinitely more egregious when actually talented teams do it.

*cough* Arsenal *cough*

I bet Spain ml just to test how unlucky and cursed I am. I’m retiring from betting if this ties.

is it garam ball though? Spain has all the possession, when CV gets whatever little possession they can muster, they go forward.

So... If Spain keeps fricking around and finishes 3rd in their group, what are the chances we draw them in the Round of 32...?

Cape Verde has 500,000 people. Holding up for this long should be a national triumph already.

They can take a 300k loss right now and limit the damage or wait for the late game winner heroics.

They’re sitting so deep they can’t even push out fast enough to challenge their keepers goal kicks.

It's the haramest haram ball to ever haram. They try to kick the ball out for a Spain throw in more than they actually try to keep possession. They have 3 shots all game.

All 11 players have been in their own 18 yard box several times in the last few minutes.

They keep turning it over on defense because they try to play it out instead of clearing.

I just see an overmatched opponent
