1 min read
The numbers, however, paint a more nuanced first half. Uruguay had the ball with 65% possession and tried their luck more often, with 5 shots compared with 1 for Cape Verde. In the decisive area, the shots-on-target tally is 0 for Uruguay and 1 for Cape Verde. The xG figures remain close, with 0.35 for Uruguay and 0.04 for Cape Verde.
First-half incidents
- Yellow card – S. Lopes Cabral (Cape Verde, 5th)
- Yellow card – R. Bentancur (Uruguay, 20th)
- Goal – K. Lenini (Cape Verde, 21st)
- Goal – M. Araujo (Uruguay, 44th)
- Goal – A. Canobbio (assist M. Araujo) (Uruguay, 45+6th)
Uruguay must confirm their advantage
With this one-goal lead, Uruguay can approach the second half in a favourable position. The challenge now will be to hold on to that advantage without dropping too deep, while taking advantage of the spaces Cape Verde will have to leave as they look to get back into the game.
Cape Verde under pressure
For Cape Verde, the break must be used to correct what was missing in the final actions. Possession or volume will not be enough if the chances do not become clearer.
