Libya and Cabo Verde played out a thrilling 3-3 draw in their FIFA World Cup qualification clash in Group D, a result that leaves both sides with work to do in their campaign. Telmo Arcanjo netted once for the visitors, who matched Libya's three-goal tally despite the hosts deploying a compact 5-4-1 formation designed to limit space. The draw represents a significant point apiece in what proved a competitive encounter, though neither side will be entirely satisfied with surrendering three goals. Libya's defensive setup, anchored by five defenders, proved insufficient to secure victory at home, while Cabo Verde's 4-2-3-1 shape allowed them to remain organised despite conceding heavily. The result keeps qualification hopes alive for both teams, though consistency in both attack and defence will be crucial moving forward.
