Colombia have beaten DR Congo 1-0 in Guadalajara to reach the knockout stage of the 2026 World Cup.

The game was goalless until the 76th minute when Daniel Munoz finally broke the deadlock for Colombia, after DRC goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi had kept the South Americans at bay.

Lionel Mpasi kept Colombia out for most of the match, making save after save, but it was Daniel Munoz's curled effort into the near post in the 76th minute that proved to be the difference.

Portugal thrashed Uzbekistan 5-0 earlier to ensure Colombia could win Group K. DR Congo remained on ‌one point and will need a result against Uzbekistan to keep their qualification ⁠hopes alive.
