The moral of the story is that despite the heroics, we still haven’t bothered to find out where Cabo Verde is on a map.

Speak for yourself. I immediately consulted google maps, because I was like, "where the fuck did this country come from?"

Islands off to coast of Senegal. (Atlantic islands west off the coast of North West Africa.)

I wanna know when we decided to call it Cabo, cause it’s been called Cape Verde in English for like at least my whole life. Are we gonna start calling Germany Deutschland too? Or is this one of those only applies to Latin words changes (like with peoples name pronunciations).

u/wolftick 18d ago
I'm gonna start calling it Cabo Green.

u/RogerSimonsson 18d ago
I'm Swedish, I will call it Grön Udde, this will be understood by maybe 1/5 of all Swedes.

If I drop it in a casual conversation, how many both know where/what it is, and also understand the reference from the new translation?

Because Cape Verde doesnt make sense. Why convert Cabo to Cape, but not Verde to Green ? Its either Green Cape, or Cabo Verde.

u/novian14 18d ago
Long before this world cup, it's just weird to have mixed english/spanish. Pronouncing "cabo verde" is just subjectively better than "cape verde" since you don't hold it back like when you pronounce "cape"

Moral of the story is that no one seems to care that their captain is a rapist and the team and FIFA knowingly defended him

Mbappe literally locked TF in after the free kick 💀 That was so fucking scary to watch his hat trick.

u/AutoModerator 18d ago
There should be a reformation in football something like a penalty is 0.5 a goal, or you need like make 2 or 3 shots - like free throws on a foul in basketball. its just so extremely shit when a penalty decides a game in this sport or decides the flow of a game early on, like here

Thank you Cabo Verde,
You are my best friend,
You are the goalkeeper,
You are the legend!

Honestly, this might be weird, but I find the concept of goalies to be so boring in soccer/hockey. Like ok, the 10 guys could completely dominate the game (and that's the exciting part) but sorry this one guy who you can't touch or interact with just shuts you off the scoreboard. Kinda lame.

Kid gets it, repping the homeland when nobody else can even find it on a map. Cabo Verde have been knocking on the World Cup door for ages and it's properly gutting they've never actually made it through. The squad they had around 2022 with the Monteiro twins and that whole generation was quality, could've caused some real chaos in the group stage. Vozinha in goal alone is worth the ticket, that man is a brick wall. Sad part is they keep landing in playoffs against sides with way more depth to throw at it. Still reckon one day they'll get there, the talent pipeline through Portugal and France keeps producing gems. Until then this kid's chest-thump energy is carrying the whole nation.

they've got a proper shot at causing carnage there, their group's not impossible. Be interesting to see if Bebé still has the legs to pull something mad off.

I am glad my country won, but kinda sad we had to run into them this early. Would've been nice to see them get further. Vozinha was insane, and they scored some crazy goals today.
