Congo DR: Congo DR's WC Education Ends

Congo DR ends their return to the World Cup with a match against Uzbekistan — arguably the most even opponent they've faced. Wangala's pace gives them a genuine attacking threat, and the game's stakes-free nature may open it up.

Their defensive block might be more adventurous here — the coaching staff may allow more offensive freedom in a match they can afford to lose.

Uzbekistan: Uzbekistan Secure Their Place in History

Uzbekistan end their first World Cup against Congo DR. Shomurodov needs one more WC moment to cap the tournament — his Roma-level quality stands above anyone else on the pitch today.

Their 5-3-2 may shift to a 4-4-2 in attack with nothing to lose. Uzbekistan may actually push forward more than in any previous match.
