Cape Verde's 40‑year‑old goalkeeper Vozinha was met with jubilant cheers at Colo‑Colo Stadium in Santiago on August 5, a scene reminiscent of a World Cup triumph.

At the Col‑Colo stadium, the atmosphere resembled a World Cup victory, though the prize was not a trophy. The arrival of Vozinha, who led Cape Verde past the group stage before a narrow loss to Argentina in the round of 32, was celebrated by Chilean fans in the capital.
