Sidny Cabral produced a stunning strike in extra time to level the score for Cape Verde against Argentina in their FIFA World Cup 2026 clash, giving his side a second equaliser in a dramatic encounter.

The goal, described by commentators as an incredible effort, kept Cape Verde alive in the contest and added another chapter to what had already become a memorable match between the two sides.

Cape Verde had previously fought back to level the scores once before the full-time whistle, and Cabral's intervention in extra time meant Argentina could not put the contest to bed despite their considerable advantages in resources and World Cup pedigree.

The West African island nation have continued to punch above their weight on the international stage, and their refusal to surrender against one of football's most decorated nations underlines the competitive spirit that has come to define Cape Verde's national team.
