2026 World Cup Overnight Highlights and Key Moments

Michel Kuka Mboladinga, famously called "Lumumba," has been a symbol of support for the Democratic Republic of the Congo since the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year. He missed DR Congo's opening match at the 2026 World Cup due to Ebola-related restrictions but returned in time for their second Group K match against Colombia last night.

Though DR Congo lost the game, Lumumba’s presence stole the spotlight.
