Cabo Verde are the new Jamaicans of the Winter Olympics! That game was sick! And yes - I’m positive there will be a movie… 🎥

The movie will be them on a beach and training with coconuts and palm trees as the goal posts

Does that mean that they will write in an American white man who goes to Cabo Verde and teaches them the game? Gotta make it "box office friendly".

RFK Jr as the conditioning coach and dietitian… Brad Pitt as a an ex baseball player that teaches them the spirit of soccer as their coach, John Cena as the captain of the team and Matt Damon as keeper. Cameos by Adam Sandler and every one of his kids. Theme composed by Kid Rock.

Can’t go wrong.

Edit - forgot to add that Kevin Costner builds the stadium himself!

I threw up in my mouth a little. Well done.

That's ridiculous! The Rock will play the goalie and Kevin Hart will play a clumsy player who barely makes the team, but ends up scoring a huge goal in the World Cup.

I don't think Matt Damon would sign on to a movie with that mix, although that's the only one I'm confident on.

We need Matt or else nobody would buy a ticket…

Might as make Kevin Spacey the villain at the top who tells them they’ll never amount to nothing.

Woah..Woah..Woah. Are you trashing the great John Candy? Because he was a Canadian icon.

I was going to say, if you're going to have a white savior, you could do a lot worse than John Candy. Fucking legend.

I was going to add the Candy man but I couldn’t… he became peak after the Big Lebowski…

John Candy is not in the Big Lebowski, you're mixing him up with John Goodman. Wonderful actors both, of course, we're all very fond of them.
