Which Argentina players stand out?

Besides star player Messi, the knockout stage puts even greater importance on goalkeepers, since penalty shootouts may happen. Therefore, Dibu Martínez could stand out in yet another World Cup, considering that the Argentine keeper saved two penalties in the 2022 World Cup final.

In Argentina’s attack, Lautaro Martínez is looking for the chance to score from open play in this World Cup. That is because the striker has found the net only once so far, and it was from the penalty spot against Jordan.

Which Cape Verde players stand out?

On Cape Verde’s side, the focus is also on goalkeeper Vozinha. After all, everything indicates that the match will be Argentina attacking against Cape Verde defending. So, the charismatic number 1 will make the difference if the team wants to advance.

Still at the back, Cape Verde is one of the unbeaten teams in this edition of the World Cup, because the back four is very solid. Wagner Pina, Diney Borges, Pico Lopes, and João Paulo will be heavily tested to stop Messi.
