Colombia and DR Congo will face each other for the very first time on Tuesday, with a victory potentially pushing either team to the edge of advancing to the World Cup knockout rounds.
For Colombia, qualification is the clear expectation. Néstor Lorenzo's squad is a familiar presence at the World Cup, now competing in its sixth edition, and continues to be one of the most thrilling attacking sides in the competition. They demonstrated exactly that in their opening fixture, cruising to a dominant 3–1 win against Uzbekistan.
DR Congo, meanwhile, will arrive brimming with confidence after holding tournament favorite Portugal to a 1–1 draw. Although they were largely without possession for much of the match, they displayed strong defensive structure and posed a real danger on the break, even coming close to grabbing a late winner.
That tenacity should guarantee Colombia encounters a far more difficult challenge than the current standings might indicate.
