Cape Verde entered its first World Cup as the underdog and the tiniest nation. The tournament’s darlings have made history as they move on to the round of 32.

The nation of just 500,000 people has defied the odds to reach the knockout rounds, delighting Cape Verdeans in Australia.

World Cup debutants Cape Verde will face reigning champions Argentina in the knockout rounds after drawing 0-0 with Saudi Arabia on Friday to extend their fairytale journey.
