Houston (Texas) The Football World Cup in the USA, Canada and Mexico has its first big sensation. The island state of Cape Verde, which has around 600,000 inhabitants, made it to the round of 16 with a goalless draw against Saudi Arabia at its World Cup premiere on Saturday night in Houston. With three points, the blatant outsider finished Group H in second place behind Spain and ahead of Uruguay and will face defending champions Argentina next Saturday (00:00).
