Wednesday, 24 Jun 2026 12:06 PM MYT GUADALAJARA, June 24 — Colombia secured their place in ‌the World Cup Round of ​32 with a game to spare after a 1-0 victory ‌over DR Congo in Group K on ​Tuesday, with Daniel Munoz scoring the winner after the South Americans had been frustrated for ​much of the evening.Colombia moved to six points from two matches and guaranteed their progress to the knockout stage ahead of their final ‌group game against Portugal, who beat ⁠Uzbekistan 5-0 earlier ⁠on Tuesday.DR Congo ⁠remained on one point ⁠and will ⁠need a result against Uzbekistan to keep their qualification hopes alive.Colombia dominated ⁠possession and created the better chances throughout but were repeatedly denied by goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi, who produced a series of saves to keep out efforts from ⁠James Rodriguez, Luis Diaz and Jhon Arias.The breakthrough finally arrived in the 76th ⁠minute when Juan Quintero’s pass found Munoz ⁠surging ⁠into the penalty area and the defender ​fired a low ​shot that took a ‌deflection on its way past ​Mpasi. — Reuters
