Cape Verde Hold Spain to Historic Draw in Yamal’s World Cup Debut

Lamine Yamal came on as a substitute but could not help Spain break Cape Verde’s defence as the match ended 0-0. In their World Cup bow, the Blue Sharks held firm against the 2010 champions. Spain controlled possession and created several chances. Marc Cucurella linked with Ferran Torres and Fabian Ruiz tested the veteran keeper but could not find a way through. Goalkeeper Vozinha kept a clean sheet with seven saves to earn man of the match honours. Cape Verde’s disciplined display frustrated La Roja throughout. The draw marks Cape Verde’s first point in World Cup history and leaves Spain with work to do in their next group game.
