Historic scenes unfolded for Cape Verde after the African nation secured a 0-0 draw against Spain on Monday, earning its first-ever point at a FIFA World Cup.
In Boston, police officers joined supporters of the team in the celebrations, dancing alongside fans and adding a unique touch to a memorable night.
The historic draw frustrated the European champions who despite having almost 75% possession and 27 goal attempts, could not get past 40-year-old keeper Vozinha.
Cape Verdeans celebrated wholeheartedly, marking a result that has already secured its place in the country’s soccer history.
