As part of the upcoming FIFA international window, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is set to face Uganda in a highly anticipated two-game friendly series.
The Uganda Football Federation (FUFA), which recently announced its roster for this series, has confirmed the dates for the two matches, set for October 2 and 5.
According to information from sources close to FECOFA, these two matches against teams from Central and East Africa will take place on neutral ground in South Africa.
This setting will allow both national teams to refine their tactical plays and thoroughly evaluate their respective rosters under optimal conditions.
This double friendly will come at a pivotal moment for the DRC Leopards.
Scheduled immediately after the start of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Equatorial Guinea and Zimbabwe, this series will allow the Congolese coaching staff to maintain the competitive rhythm, fine-tune their strategies, and assess the team’s form ahead of upcoming continental competitions.
