📈Vozinha, the star of the World Cup so far | OneFootball

At 40 years old, he was named MVP of the match against Spain, and his rise in such a short time has been astonishing.

His tears at the end of the match against Spain, having been crucial in helping his country earn a point at a World Cup for the first time ever — Vozinha is one of the standout figures of this World Cup, and his numbers are absolutely outrageous.

A goalkeeper who, at 40 years old, is the oldest keeper ever to keep a clean sheet on his World Cup debut. On top of that, the opponent was one of the favorites to win the title. His market value was €50,000.

But Vozinha’s rise has not only been financial, but social as well. In just a short period of time, he has gone from having around 300,000 followers on Instagram to now having nearly one and a half million.

As many as seven saves, the MVP award, and an achievement that is already part of Cape Verdean and World Cup history. Vozinha — remember the name.
