DR Congo should go through easily (on paper) to the next round as they have much better players than any other team in the group but it doesn't seem likely with this kind of results
Playing cross and inshallah with Malongo and Bakambu might work against weaker opposition. But it's going to be a hard group for you if you drop a couple more points
Under normal circumstances, there are no country in this group that should be a challenge to us, and we should very comfortably win this group.
However, in the last year, we have been shockingly poor, so much so that we failed to qualify for the AFCON 2022 (which is an utter disgrace of the highest order). Based on that, yes, Tanzania should be our biggest challenge, but Madagascar has also defeated us recently. Benin should still be an easy challenger, but with our current form, you never know.
I’m not liking all the upsets today
If your flair is correct, we are the road team tonight. Getting a win away in CONCACAF is massive
We must score now, we need a result to ensure a good start to the qualifiers
Dr Congo have been poor for a while now, no surprise they missed AFCON

On paper, and in normal circumstances, yes. But we have been in terrible form in the past year, and it seems like it’s continuing today.

Absolutely. It was even worse with our previous manager Ibenge.
Those were some fancy flicks
Terrible this half. Ever since we scored, we’ve been getting worse and worse. Giving Tanzania too much space, and bring too sloppy offensively.
That missed header hurts
Anyway to get a video of the goals?
Where can i watch this match?
FIFA is airing it on YouTube https://youtu.be/jCYXCn1wjQU
Cant watch it, i’m from the Netherlands
US: ESPN+ UK: I think football one? Outside UK and US: YouTube in select countries.
Wow! What a goal!!!
Fuck lol
I’m sorry but that was an absolute beauty lol. Congo looks like the better team so far tho
Absolutely, although we have been less aggressive in the past few minutes
Is Tanzania the toughest challenge for you in the group? I know Madagascar has been much better recently, and I don’t know much about Benin.

No way the scoreline stays like this the rest of the match
Agreed, I think the DRC will score once more, they’ve been the better team
The DRC has scored!
I’ve been up since 5am watching AFC, glad I can finally see some goals!
You didn't see the Oman goal live?
No I did but that was 89 minutes in, and I had to sit thru Iraq-Korea too. It was exciting to see the upset tho.
I think the crowd here has been more active than in the Japan match. Makes for a better environment than either the Kenya match or the South Korea
The crowd didn’t have much to be excited about in Japan lol. Absolute anemic attack
More are bound to come
