Argentina Vs Cape Verde FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Live Streaming: Lionel Messi and defending champion Argentina will aim to secure one of the remaining spots in the World Cup round of 16 when they take on Cape Verde on Friday night in Miami Gardens, Florida.
As expected, Messi has been one of the standout performers of the tournament. His six goals are tied for the most with France’s Kylian Mbappe. Messi also became the World Cup’s all-time leading scorer with 19 career goals, although Mbappe sits just one behind after scoring twice in France’s 3-0 victory over Sweden.
Messi has played one fewer match than Mbappe at this year’s world cup, giving him another opportunity to strengthen his Golden Boot campaign against a Cape Verde side that lacks
the star power of its opponents.
On paper, the matchup is the soccer equivalent of David versus Goliath.
“I believe we can do a great thing here,” Cape Verde backup defender Stopira said through a translator on Thursday. “And this is no exception. This match is no exception.”
A victory for Cape Verde would rank among the tournament’s biggest upsets and send shockwaves through the soccer world. Even so, the team has already shown it is capable of surprising opponents who underestimate it.
