61' Goal!!! Cabo Verde are level

By David Hirst

Can. You. Believe. It

What a mess from Uruguay.

A terrible back pass falls short.

Keeper Fernando Muslera comes out but can't get to the ball and sub Helio Varela shoots into an empty net.

The sub has only been on the pitch a couple of minutes.

59' Cabo Verde free-kick hits wall

No repeat of that stunning first-half free-kick.

53' Even start to the half

D

By David Hirst

Uruguay is again dominating possession, but there have been no chances in the half yet.

I don't really see Cabo Verde getting an equaliser, but there is plenty of time to go.

Second half kicks off in Miami

Can Cabo Verde get back into this?

They played well in the first half but fell asleep a little at the end for Uruguay's second goal.

Here come the players for the second half

Uruguay in front in Miami as we head into the break.

45+5' Heartbreak for Cabo Verde. Uruguay in front!

D

By David Hirst

Uruguay are in front in stoppage time.

Disaster for Cabo Verde.

Agustin Canobbio with the goal.

Canobbio diverts a cross past Vozinha. It may have come off his shin.

44' Goal!!!! Uruguay are level

D

By David Hirst

Cruel on Cabo Verde.

A header hits the post and Maxi Araujo puts in the rebound with a diving header.

Cabo Verde had a man down injured during that passage of play.

The Uruguay player was helping a Cabo Verde player with his cramp but then left him on the ground to join in with the attack.

Cabo Verde unlucky but it's 1-1.

42' Cabo Verde looking comfortable

By David Hirst

We're heading towards half-time and Cabo Verde are looking good for their lead.

Uruguay, two-time World Cup winners, still struggling to create chances.

34' Uruguay struggling to create chances

By David Hirst

Cabo Verde's defence is holding strong.

Uruguay not really creating much despite having most of the ball.

Cabo Verde hero's mum in the crowd

D

By David Hirst

Ana Candida Evora is in the crowd to watch her son, Cabo Verde goalkeeper Vozinha Vozinha.

Vozinha made some stunning saves against Spain but his mum was unable to attend because she couldn't obtain a visa.

20' What a goal for Cabo Verde!

By David Hirst

WHAT A HIT!!!

Cabo Verde's first ever World Cup goal.

Kevin Pina fires a free-kick into the bottom corner.

One of the goals of the tournament!

Uruguay are stunned.

Their wall was a bit dodgy on that free-kick.

14' Uruguay with the first chance

D

By David Hirst

Uruguay is on the counterattack.

The ball goes to Federico Valverde but the Real Madrid man pulls his shot wide.

Good chance.

12' Uruguay dominating the ball

D

By David Hirst

Uruguay has most of the early pressure, but no chances yet.

The Cabo Verde defenders are going to have to keep switched on for 90 minutes.

5' Early yellow card for Cabo Verde

D

By David Hirst

Cabo Verde's Sidny Lopes Cabral goes into the book in the first five minutes for a clumsy challenge.

He was also booked in the game against Spain so he'll be suspended for the next match.

Uruguay and Cabo Verde are out for the national anthems.

All to play for in Group H

D

By David Hirst

Uruguay kicked off their World Cup campaign with a 1-1 draw against Saudi Arabia.

Cabo Verde, of course, held World Cup heavyweights Spain to a 0-0 draw.

This morning, we saw Spain beat Saudi Arabia 4-0, so they should get the top spot in Group H.

The second place is still up for grabs.
