Team Feature: Cabo Verde | The World Cup 2026 Debutants Powered by A Global Diaspora

Cabo Verde qualified for its first-ever FIFA World Cup in 2026, relying heavily on its famous "11th Island" diaspora to pull off a footballing miracle. Despite having a population of only about half a million across its islands, there are over one million Cabo Verdeans living abroad. Head coach Bubista expertly tapped into this global network, even scouting players via LinkedIn, to build a squad capable of competing on the world stage. #FIFAWorldCupOnYT #caboverde #spain Spain v Cabo Verde | FIFA World Cup 2026™ | June 15 2026 | Pre-game FOLLOW FIFA’S TOURNAMENT CHANNELS BELOW!
