The Democratic Republic of Congo will take on Uzbekistan in their final Group K match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. German referee Felix Zwayer will oversee this decisive encounter as the Leopards look to keep their hopes of reaching the Round of 32 alive.
DR Congo enter the match with one point from two games and must claim all three points to remain in contention for a place among the tournament’s best third-placed teams. The Leopards need a strong attacking display and a disciplined defensive performance to keep their World Cup dream alive.
Uzbekistan, meanwhile, have already lost their first two matches and can no longer qualify for the knockout stage. However, the White Wolves will aim to finish their campaign on a positive note and spoil DR Congo’s ambitions. This meeting also marks the first official match ever played between the two nations.
