Vozinha in Tears After Spain Draw, Mother Misses Match

Cape Verde's 40-year-old goalkeeper, Vozinha, was named man of the match after a 0-0 draw with Spain, but his mother couldn't attend the World Cup match due to visa costs.

Vozinha, 40, made seven saves to earn man‑of‑the‑match honors as Cape Verde held Euro‑champion Spain to a 0‑0 draw in the World Cup group stage.

The goalkeeper was in tears at full time, saying the game had been his life's work and wishing he could have shared the moment with his late grandparents and mother, who could not attend because she could not afford a U.S. visa. xsportfeed.quest
