Soccer-Cape Verde Keeper Vozinha's Mother Gets Visa to Watch Son at World Cup

The mother of Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha has successfully obtained a visa to travel to the United States, allowing her to watch her son compete in the World Cup. The visa approval comes as a major relief after travel complications had previously prevented her from attending the tournament.[1][2]

The goalkeeper had previously made a tearful revelation that his mother was unable to witness his heroic performance against Spain in person due to these travel issues. With her travel documents now secured, she will finally be able to join the spectators and watch her son play on the world stage.[2]

Collins currently leads by 10 points, 55% to 45%. The Associated Press has not yet made a call, but NBC’s analysis is based on the fact that Collins is doing better than Dooley in the votes cast on election day, which tend to favor candidates, like Collins, endorsed by Donald Trump , who hates mail-in ballots almost as much as he hates windmills. <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2026/jun/16/midterm-primaries-election-updates-ge
