Gets two shots off
Monteiro generated two shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Friday's 0-0 draw versus Saudi Arabia.
Analysis: Monteiro logged 71 minutes in the 0-0 draw against Saudi Arabia on Friday, contributing steadily even in a match where chances were limited. He created one chance, registered a shot on target, and completed four passes into the final third. His attacking impact has been muted across the three group‑stage fixtures, an understandable outcome given the strength of the opponents Capo Verde faced. This quieter offensive stretch leaves him with a challenging path ahead, especially with the defending World Cup champions Argentina awaiting on July 3.
Narrow miss, full shift in midfield
Monteiro had two shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Uruguay.
Analysis: Monteiro nearly produced a highlight-reel second goal for Cape Verde in the 64th minute, ripping a long-range effort that missed the top corner by inches, while putting together a solid 80-minute shift in midfield with two shots, one chance created, one corner and two interceptions. He was a constant engine in the middle of the park and played a key role in helping the Tubaroes Azuis deliver a far more aggressive attacking display than their scoreless draw against Spain. Monteiro and Cape Verde will aim to build on that attacking momentum heading into their decisive final group-stage clash with Saudi Arabia.
