@fifatrainingcentre: Uruguay v Cabo Verde: Cabo Verde’s super-sub moment Cabo Verde demonstrated exactly what a game-changing substitution can look like. Da Costa and Hélio had been on the pitch for only 2 minutes when the former aggressively initiated the press after a Uruguay throw-in. Hélio then cleverly anticipated the square pass and broke into a 20-metre full sprint. He arrived first, took a touch around the onrushing goalkeeper and finished from just outside the box into an empty net.   Can you think of other substitutes on the greatest stage who made a similar impact? #WorldCup
