Well done Kabu Verdi, heroic performance.

And that is why having small countries there is great for the sport. Once in a lifetime result for them.

[dr.chekov]

That's great.

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Has to be their greatest day in their sporting history!

Bank holiday declared as we speak...

Can’t believe you didn’t see that coming!

Sometimes even a 0-0 is a very satisfactory result.

Onana and Tielemans start for Belgium against Egypt. Trezeguet on the bench.

[PeterWithesShin]

But a 0-0 draw between Spain and Italy that everyone forgets 30 seconds after the final whistle would be so much better because they are big nations.

Italy at a World Cup?

Onana and Tielemans start for Belgium against Egypt. Trezeguet on the bench.

Fancy Youri for a goal there

[PaulWinch again]

Good stuff

Wow..bet the bookies loved that result.

I should have listened to my Cabo-Verdiano taxi driver last week. He'd only been here 5 weeks and I had to give him directions all the way. Lovely fella and very confident about their chances in the World Cup, they weren't going just to make up the numbers. Fantastic result for them I just hope they don't party too hard as I live a few doors down from their consul.
