Cape Verde Goalkeeper Vozinha's Mother Granted US Visa

America. Cape Verde's star goalkeeper Vozinha's mother Ana Candida Evora has been granted a visa to enter the United States. Now it is certain that she will meet her 40-year-old son during the World Cup match.

US House of Representatives Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries said on social media on Wednesday, 'Vozinha's mother will meet him in Miami on Sunday before the match between Cape Verde and Uruguay.'

Vozinha came into the limelight after making excellent saves in the preliminary match against Spain, drawing 0-0 in the World Cup. He attracted the attention of the general audience after succeeding in stopping the powerful team Spain.

However, his mother could not get the necessary visa to come to America due to financial reasons. She was deprived of watching the game as she could not pay the required fee to obtain the visa.

After the match, Vozinha also said that his mother could not come to America and watch him play live.

Hakeem Jeffries had urged US Secretary of State Marco Rubio to take initiative in this matter. After that, all fees were waived, travel arrangements were made, and she will be present at Cape Verde's next match in Miami.

Jeffries expressed gratitude to the US State Department, the Cape Verde government, and FIFA for their cooperation in this process.

Cape Verde will play its second group stage match against Uruguay on Sunday.
