Cape Verde has made an unexpected impact at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, achieving a draw against Spain in their opening match. This soccer success is paralleled by a meteorological phenomenon known as the "Cape Verde season," which refers to the intensification of hurricanes originating from African easterly waves that pass near the islands. The nation's journey to the World Cup includes the story of Roberto Lopes, who transitioned from a banking career after being recruited via LinkedIn to join the national team, contributing to their surprising performance.
