    FIFA WC 2026: 'We Are Still Fighting,' Says DR Congo Manager After Colombia Defeat

    By IANS News June 24, 2026 • 14:10 PM View: 354
    FIFA World Cup: Democratic Republic of the Congo manager Sebastien Desabre has urged his players to remain positive and continue believing in their chances of reaching the FIFA World Cup 2026 knockout stage despite suffering a narrow 1-0 defeat to Colombia in Group K.

    The African nation, making its first World Cup appearance since 1974, now sits third in the group with one point from two matches. DR Congo must defeat Uzbekistan in its final group fixture in Atlanta on Saturday to keep alive any hope of progressing to the round of 32.

    Speaking after the loss at Guadalajara Stadium, Desabre admitted the result was disappointing but stressed that his team could not afford to dwell on it.
