DURBAN – Cape Verde Islands are much more than just a fairytale story at the African Nations Cup and have the potentials to regularly compete in top continental events, coach Lucio Antunes has said."My team is not as weak as you guys think,” the coach told reporters as he basked in the glory of Wednesday’s 1-1 draw with former champions Morocco in Durban.Added to the point they picked up in unexpectedly holding hosts South Africa in last weekend’s opening game, the smallest country to ever compete now have a realistic chance of reaching the quarterfinals."We have won both home and away against some good teams in the past and even held Portugal to a draw away a few years ago. We are strong home and away and we’ve got some fantastic players,” Antunes said."We showed we have a great collection of players like South Africa, Morocco, Nigeria, the Ivory Coast, Ghana,” he said, smiling as the names rolled off his tongue."My players can play at Chelsea, Manchester United, Milan, Real Madrid, Barcelona. They can go there.”
