Assist against Argentina
Mendes logged one assist on his lone chance created across 80 minutes during Cape Verde's 3-2 loss Friday to Argentina.
Analysis: In terms of passes Friday against Argentina, Mendes logged Cape Verde's most important one. Down 1-0 during the game's 59th minute, Mendes recorded a crossing opportunity, but his two inaccurate crosses indicate he did not attempt to cross said moment. Instead, through the legs of opposing defender Facundo Medina, Mendes logged a ground pass to Deroy Duarte, who subsequently scored. During the 80th minute, Willy Semedo replaced Mendes. But because neither scored in regulation, Cape Verde's tournament appearance was prolonged because of his assist, albeit temporarily. Aside from that, the wide midfielder's tourney appearances include eight clearances, four interceptions and three chances created.
Creates one chance in draw
Mendes generated one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 0-0 draw against Saudi Arabia.
Analysis: Mendes closed out the group stage with 71 minutes of action, creating one chance, recording a blocked shot, and adding two tackles along with two clearances. Across all three matches, his influence leaned more toward the defensive side, where he consistently provided stability for Capo Verde. Over his 251 minutes played, he won 14 duels, registered four successful tackles, and produced eight clearances, reflecting a steady and disciplined presence even without major attacking involvement.
