Along with sharing linguistic heritage, Cape Verde and Mozambique defied the chances once they opened their TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations, Cote d’Ivoire 2023 with spectacular outcomes towards their extra fancied opponents.
Cape Verde shocked a star-stunned Ghana 2-1, whereas Mozambique had been unfortunate to not win towards match file holders, Egypt who snatched a late 2-2 draw.
The 2 sides meet on Friday, 19 January in what guarantees to be a extremely entertaining encounter between two sides who’ve actually proven up in Cote d’Ivoire.
A victory for Mozambique might see them make historical past by advancing from the match’s group levels for the primary time ever, however a tactically sound Cape Verde is not going to make it straightforward for them.
Word that this would be the first assembly between the 2 sides within the TotalEnergies CAF AFCON.
Cape Verde stays on a sequence of three unbeaten matches towards Mozambique (2 wins, 1 draw), all performed within the qualifiers for the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations.
