Colombia Edges DR Congo 1-0 to Move Up to Four Points
Colombia beat the Democratic Republic of Congo 1-0 in the second round of the 2026 World Cup. Daniel Muñoz scored the only goal in the 76th minute, after a scoreless first half in which Colombia controlled possession but was repeatedly denied by Congolese goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi.
The win lifted Colombia to four points, level with Portugal, but Colombia sits behind it in the standings on goal difference. Congo remained on two points after the loss.
Congo will finish the group stage against Uzbekistan in the final round.
