The US government is doing its best to ensure Ana Candida Evora is in Miami in the next few days to watch her son play in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Vozinha's mother has been granted a USA visa to attend FIFA World Cup 2026 matches. After Cape Verde's 0-0 draw against Spain, the player revealed that his mother could not travel because of visa issues.

After the Man of the Match performance with seven saves, Vozinha told reporters that he was emotional because his mother was not able to travel to the United States to attend the World Cup. Vozinha said that visa issues and the associated expenses were too much to make the trip happen in time.

Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha stunned the world by shutting out Spain's formidable attacking line-up in the island nation's World ​Cup debut on Monday but one woman was not the least bit surprised.

The 40-year-old revealed after the game that the high cost of fees had prevented his mother visiting him in the US during the tournament.

Cape Verdean goalkeeper Josimar 'Vozinha' Dias will be reunited with his mother at the FIFA World Cup 2026 match against Uruguay in Miami. US authorities expedited visa arrangements after Vozinha expressed his disappointment that his mother couldn't attend his historic debut due to complications.
