Cape Verde hold Uruguay to 2-2 draw to remain unbeaten in World Cup

Cape Verde fought back to earn a 2-2 draw with Uruguay in World Cup Group H on Sunday as the African archipelago maintained their stunning unbeaten start at the global showpiece.

The debutants took the lead in Miami against the two-time former winners when Kevin Pina rifled in their first-ever World Cup goal before Uruguay hit back on the stroke of half-time to lead through Maximiliano Araujo and Agustin Canobbio, but Cape Verdean Helio Varela netted just after the hour to ensure the spoils were shared in the tightly-contested pool.
