£29.99
This is a Tempo Cape Verde national team home jersey as worn by the 'Tubarões Azuis (Blue Sharks)' throughout the 2023-24 period.
Despite having a population of only just over 500,000, Cape Verde have emerged in recent years as a genuine force in African football. Cape Verdeans abroad, who are more numerous than the population of the islands themselves, are a major source of players for the national team, with many of the squad competing in some of Europe’s top leagues. Cape Verde first qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations and 2013 and were one of the surprises of the tournament, advancing to the quarter finals at the expense of Morocco and Angola. They qualified for AFCON again in 2015, however didn’t make it through the group stage this time and did not return to the tournament until the 2021 edition. At AFCON 2021, Cape Verde progressed through the group stages and lost to eventual champions Senegal in the Round of 16. The team continued their strong form at AFCON 2023, where they achieved their greatest-ever finish in an African Cup of Nations, reaching the Quarter-Finals and finished 5th overall. They recorded a historic win over Ghana in the opening group stage match before drawing 2-2 against Egypt and later defeating Mauritania in the Round of 16.
