FIFA World Cup: Heavyweights stumble as minnows make their mark on the global stage

Through five days and 16 matches of soccer's biggest extravaganza ever, the underdogs are proving to be very tough to beat.

The biggest win (that wasn't a win) of all saw Cape Verde - ranked No. 67 and in its World Cup debut - hold No. 2 Spain, a favorite to win the whole thing, 0-0 in what easily has been the biggest shocker of the tournament to this point.
