The forward of the national team of the Democratic Republic of Congo scored a goal in the match against Portugal and gave his country a historic moment at the World Cup 2026.

The team of the DR Congo wrote a new chapter in its football history during the match of the first round of the group stage of the World Cup 2026 against Portugal. At the end of the first half, the Congolese managed to match their goals to the precise strike of Ioan Wyss.



In the fifth half of the match until the first half of the match, the African team played Kutovy, after which Arthur Masuaku delivered a cross to the far post. Losing weight without a guard, he headed the ball past Portuguese goalkeeper Diogo Costo.

This goal was special for the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which returned to the World Cup 52 years after its first participation in the World Cup.

Apparently, the team of the Democratic Republic of Congo competed in the world championship back in 1974 under the name Zaira, but has not scored any goals since then.
