Cape Verde GK Vozinha stopped World Cup favorites ...

It's never too late in life to have a breakout. Just ask Cape Verde 's Vozinha .

Vozinha woke up on Monday as an unheralded 40-year-old goalkeeper enjoying the back end of a 19-year career that has seen him play at least 200 games (stats providers have not tracked all of his matches across clubs in Portugal, Cape Verde, Moldova, Angola, Cyprus and Slovakia). He has won a single trophy in his career (2018-19 Cypriot Cup with AEL Limassol) and has proudly represented his native Cape Verde since 2012.

This World Cup -- Cape Verde's first ever -- is by some margin the highlight of his career.
