What was going on in the head of 18yr old Kobbie Mainoo

@UTD_Seth001 You can’t deny greatness

🚨Lionel Scaloni on Vozinha after Argentina’s victory over Cape Verde: 🗣️ “Usually, when Argentina create that many chances, the game opens up and becomes easier. Against Vozinha… every save felt like another kickoff. Every time we thought we’d found the breakthrough, he was there again with another unbelievable stop. He was exceptional tonight. His positioning, his reactions, his bravery coming off his line—everything was at the highest level. As a coach, you actually begin to admire a goalkeeper like that, even when he’s making your job much harder. I told my players at halftime that we couldn’t become frustrated because he was having one of those special nights. Goalkeepers can win matches on their own, and for long periods, Vozinha almost did exactly that for Cape Verde. That’s what the World Cup is about. Players who many people didn’t know a few weeks ago suddenly show the entire world their quality. Tonight, Vozinha announced himself on the biggest stage in football. We found a way to win in the end, but I have nothing but respect for him. Cape Verde stayed in this game because of their organisation, their courage, and because they had a goalkeeper who refused to give up. Performances like that deserve recognition, regardless of the result.”

@UtdBloke_ Bro the goalkeeper deserved the award

Lisandro Martinez robbed.

@UTDAlex8 He won our hearts

🚨Thierry Henry on Cape Verde’s 40-year-old goalkeeper Vozinha after his eight-save masterclass against Argentina: “I have to give Vozinha incredible credit. At 40 years old, to produce a performance like that against Argentina on the biggest stage is extraordinary. Most goalkeepers at that age are slowing down, but he played with the hunger and courage of someone making his international debut. Argentina threw everything at him. They created chances from every angle, but every time they thought they had beaten him, he found another save. And when you stop Lionel Messi in a one-on-one situation, you know you’re having the game of your life. That’s a moment every goalkeeper dreams about. The greatest goalkeepers don’t just save shots—they break the confidence of world-class attackers. You could see Argentina becoming more desperate because one man refused to let them take control. Eight saves only tell part of the story. Vozinha didn’t just keep Cape Verde alive; he earned the respect of the football world. Nights like this are remembered forever.”

🚨🎙️Vozinha on Cape Verde elimination from the FIFA World Cup after their heartbreaking loss to Argentina: 🗣️ “This is one of the hardest nights of my career. It’s impossible to put into words what I’m feeling right now because we gave everything we had for our country. We fought until the very last second, but sometimes football can be unbelievably cruel. Looking around the dressing room and seeing my teammates in tears breaks my heart. I know how much every single one of them sacrificed just to wear this shirt and represent Cape Verde on the biggest stage in football. They deserved to leave this pitch with their heads held high. What hurts the most is the fans. They believed in us from the first day of this tournament. They travelled thousands of miles, they sang for us until the final whistle, and they never stopped believing. Seeing their faces after the game is something I’ll never forget. This defeat will stay with us for a long time because we truly believed we could achieve something special. One moment changed everything, and our World Cup dream disappeared in an instant. That’s the beauty and the cruelty of football. To every Cape Verde supporter, I’m sorry we couldn’t give you the ending you deserved. But I will always be proud to have fought alongside this team and to have worn this badge. We leave with broken hearts, but no one can ever question our passion, our commitment or our love for Cape Verde.”

@PaamanuelUtd_ That was a clear foul..should have been a freekick

How did the ref not call a penalty for Cape Verde? Argentina always favored

@UTDTrey They’re not getting passed us 😂😂

Don’t worry keep winning, we are waiting for you😂

🚨🎙️Zlatan Ibrahimovic on Sydney Lopez’s equalizer (2-2 vs Argentina, 2026 World Cup Round of 32): “Sydney Lopez scores again? Beautiful. Cape Verde equalize and the whole world stops to watch. They are not scared. No one is scared of Argentina tonight. The champions roll up with Messi, with all their superstars, expecting an easy night in Miami, and these island warriors look them straight in the eye and say, ‘You want it? Come and get it.’ This is football at its best. This is how the game should be played, with heart, with courage, with zero respect for big names or big reputations. Argentina are frustrated, you can see it on Messi’s face, on the bench, everywhere. But Cape Verde? They are loving every second. They are making history right in front of us. Zlatan loves this. No fear. Pure fight. Small team, big balls. This is why the World Cup is the greatest stage on earth.“

@UTDTrey I’ll take that though..he’s one of our own..now Cape Verde needs to equalize again

MARTINEZ YOU HAVE RUINED MY LIFE WHAT DID I DO TO YOU💔

LISANDRO MARTINEZ HAS MOST LIKELY WON IT FOR ARGENTINA VS CAPE VERDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL LISANDRO MARTINEZ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! INCREDIBLE !!!!!!!!! 🇦🇷💫

@UTD_Seth001 He has been really solid

🚨Edwin van der Sar on Vozinha’s performance for Cape Verde against Argentina: 🗣️ “As a goalkeeper, I love watching performances like this. Vozinha has been absolutely outstanding. Against a team like Argentina, you know you’re going to be tested over and over again, but he’s stayed calm, made big saves, and given his defenders confidence. What impresses me most isn’t just the shot-stopping—it’s his presence. He’s commanding his box, organising the back line, and refusing to let the occasion overwhelm him. That’s the mentality top goalkeepers are made of. If Cape Verde are still fighting in this match, a huge part of the reason is Vozinha. Performances like this can define a goalkeeper’s career because the whole world is watching, and tonight he’s shown he belongs on the biggest stage.”

🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on Vozinha’s performance vs Argentina : “Safe to say, if not for Vozinha tonight, this game could be over already. Save after save — and that latest one on Messi’s free-kick? Pure brilliance. He’s showing the world he’s under no pressure whatsoever. Those dribbles in his box… oof, that’s psychological annoyance. You can see the frustration on the Argentines’ faces, especially Messi. He’s been denied again by this 40-year-old veteran who is standing like a wall for Cape Verde. This isn’t just goalkeeping; this is heart, leadership, and experience at its finest. Cape Verde are in their first World Cup, facing the champions, and they’re still right in it because of performances like this. Vozinha is the hero of the hour, making himself a legend out there. Absolute respect — this is why we love the game.”

🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on Deroy Duarte’s equalizer for Cape Verde vs Argentina; “What a goal from Deroy Duarte. Cape Verde, in their first-ever World Cup, going toe-to-toe with the champions and finding that moment. That’s football at its purest. You look at the composure, the technique Duarte finishes it well, and for a small nation like this to score against Argentina with Messi on the pitch? It means everything. It shows they belong here, that they can compete at this level. It gives them belief, it gives the tournament drama, and it reminds everyone that on any given day, anything can happen. Argentina are still the favorites, but this changes the game, nothing is assured. Cape Verde have heart, they’ve got quality, and moments like this are why the World Cup is special. Big respect to Duarte and the whole team.“

@elonhatesder4 Barely

@Lemonbryz They escaped

🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on Egypt’s Dramatic Penalty-Shootout Victory over Australia in the FIFA WORLD CUP; “Egypt are through to the Round of 16 for the first time in their history — you have to applaud that. They showed real character in the end, holding their nerve in the penalty shootout (winning 4-2) and advancing. Mohamed Salah and the boys have made their nation proud tonight. But let’s be honest… they nearly threw it away. That early header from Emam Ashour in the 13th minute gave them total control, they were the better team for long periods, and yet they dropped deep, invited pressure, and allowed Australia back into the game with Mohamed Hany’s own goal in the 55th minute. It became a nervous, scrappy affair that went all the way to extra time and penalties. We’ve seen this pattern too often with African teams at this World Cup — start brightly, take the lead, then lose their way when it matters most. The talent is clearly there, the desire is there, but the mentality and game management at this level still need work. Tonight they got away with it thanks to the shootout, but against stronger opposition, you cannot afford to bottle a lead like that. Still, a win is a win. Now the real test begins.”

@elonhatesder4 😭😭😭

I pity una wey de think say Cape Verde go do anything today cuz e no get kind of goals wey them no go chop from Messi today 😂😂😂😂

@UtdBloke_ He played us

David Ornstein look us face to face come tell us "Manchester united will be the busiest this summer" Big bro what's happening? We've seen nothing.

🚨🎙️ Aurélien Tchouaméni on reports linking him with Manchester United: “I’m fully focused on winning the World Cup with France, then helping Real Madrid get back on our feet and achieve what we want next season. I love it there, but if I were ever to make a move, Manchester United would be the only club I’d consider leaving for. Unfortunately, they won’t come for me until I’m 30 anyway.“

@Utdcen Drop a hint ?

football lovers And Manchester United fan Guess this legendary player

@Utd1Optimist You never can tell

Funny how Argentina actually in the dangerous side of the tournament but nobody actually deeps it. These underdog countries don’t play!

@UTDTrey It just might happen

Argentina 0-0 Cape Verde Vozinha has saved Messi’s Penalty in the shootout & won it for Cape Verde
