The President of the African archipelago published a text on his personal Facebook page, reflecting on the achievement of his country's national team.

"It is, symbolically, a new independence, because we have proven that, in these 50 years, we have laid the foundations and grown in all areas of economic and social life," began the President of Cape Verde, the country of former Sporting player Jovane Cabral, on Facebook.

José Maria Neves continued: "From an unlikely country in 1975, today, we reveal once again that we are already a country of possibilities. If we can go to the World Cup, we can also win in other spheres and show the world that we are a people with a great spirit".

"It became evident that when we are united, we can overcome all obstacles (...) Together, we go far! We will be unbeatable!", concluded the President of Cape Verde, exalting the achievement accomplished by the Blue Sharks in the African qualification for the World Cup.
