Vozinha. Let me tell you a short story about him. In 1986, a soldier in Cape Verde was watching the World Cup in Mexico. He saw a Brazilian right back come from nowhere, score one of the greatest goals in World Cup history, and end up in the tournament's Best XI. That soldier was so moved that he named his newborn son after that player. That son is Josimar Dias. The world knows him as Vozinha. And today, 40 years after his father watched that World Cup as a soldier, Vozinha played in one himself. He grew up with his grandparents on the island of São Vicente. As a kid, he was considered the best goalkeeper on the island, but kept getting rejected in trials because scouts thought he was too small. He moved to Angola for his first foreign adventure and found another goalkeeper already using his name and he said "I'm not putting Josimar II on my shirt,"😅😅, So he embraced the nickname his grandparents gave him Vozinha and carried it around. He has been Cape Verde keeper for 14 years with 80+ caps and four AFCONs, but no World Cup, at some point he considered walking away from the national team entirely. His teammates pulled him back. "They encouraged me to stay because of the World Cup," he said. "Because it was my dream. All of our dreams." Today, that dream arrived. Cape Verde's first ever World Cup match. Against Spain that has Yamal, Pedri and other stars, the reigning European Champions. Vozinha made 7 saves. A 40-year-old man, raised by his grandparents, rejected for being too small, named after a World Cup hero by a soldier father stood in goal at the biggest tournament on earth and kept a clean sheet against Spain. Some stories you genuinely cannot make up. 🧤🇨🇻
