Yes, indeed, Irena.
It does capture the essence of the feelings of Cape Verdeans and their sentiments at this moment.
In fact, that day when Cape Verde qualified for the knockout round, you could see the excitement among the fans and supporters because it was the first time in history.
It's the first time they are participating in the tournament and people were very upbeat that they would qualify.
They were hopeful because they had been written off by mostly the rest of the world.
And as you did hear from that fan, he said that faith had been a key part of this.
Faith because they had been underestimated, undermined, but they believed that they had what it took to go to the next round.
And that's what they did.
Well, I think she recognizes the efforts that led to that glory or achievement, if you can call it that.
Cape Verde came to the tournament as the underdogs, as I said, but they did have a track record before getting there.
They emerged as leaders of their group during the World Cup qualification round.
And they qualified over Cameroon, a continental giant with five African Nations Cup and several World Cup participations.
And I'm Cameroonian, so I can tell you that people back home are very frustrated because they are not taking part in this tournament.
So it's very surprising.
Cape Verde beat the Cameroonians to qualify.
And so you can understand from that moment, the energy and the spirit that they had to sail through to other rounds in the World Cup, because they felt that if they could qualify, then they could go very far in the tournament.
And they had a very good score, 23 points in the qualifying rounds.
Based on what I've learned.
learned from being here in prior in the capital, people attribute that to the unity that reigns within the team.
The team members seem to have a common vision, a common purpose, and that's to win collectively.
