At halftime in Atlanta, Spain is being frustrated by Cape Verde and the score remains level 0-0.
La Roja controlled most of the opening period but could not find a way past a disciplined Cape Verde defense, led by an outstanding display from goalkeeper Vozinha.
After a slow start, the Spaniards gradually increased the intensity and looked more dangerous as the first half progressed, coming close to opening the scoring.
If the momentum continues after the break, Cape Verde could face a tough second half.
