In Cádiz CF they follow the World Cup in Qatar for several reasons:
- The participation of the Spanish national team
- The possibility of a standout player who could be interesting in the winter transfer market
- Awer Mabil's participation, the only player from the yellow team present at the event
Mabil faced the second match with Australia on November 26 after the defeat (4-1) against France in the first group stage match. The winger played the last 17 minutes of the game against the French team and was again a substitute in the important match against Tunisia.
- The right-back Arias offers himself to Cádiz CF: the club's stance
- Xerez CD - Cádiz CF: the presidents hope it will be "a football party" between siblings
- Tomas Alarcon's complicated situation at Cádiz CF and the effect of his possible departure
The 'socceroos' needed the victory to stay in contention and they got the three points in the match against the African combined team with a tight 1-0 thanks to a goal scored by Duke in the middle of the first half.
Mabil took to the field in the final stretch of the match, in the 85th minute, as his team struggled to contain the desperate onslaught of the Tunisians. He played eleven minutes (five until the 90th minute plus the six of injury time) and had a counterattack that he couldn't complete because he lost control of the ball when he tried to dribble.
The player had already entered the history of Cádiz CF in the first match by becoming the first player to play in a World Cup as a member of the yellow team. And on Saturday, with the victory over Tunisia, he became the first player in the history of Cádiz CF to win a match in a World Cup.
Players who were part of the Cádiz team at some point participated in a World Cup but never while playing for the club. For example, Igor Stimac was with Cádiz between 1992 and 1994 and played for Croatia in the 1998 World Cup.
Or the case of Kiko Narváez, a former Cádiz academy player who after standing out in the first team signed for Atletico Madrid and also participated in the 1998 World Cup with Spain but as an Atletico player.
Or the magician Mágico González, who arrived at Cádiz CF after standing out with El Salvador in the 1982 World Cup held in Spanish territory.
