Axel Tuanzebe was the only goalscorer as DR Congo battled through extra-time to beat Jamaica and confirm their return to the World Cup for the first time since attending as Zaire in 1977. An extended qualifying campaign for Congo culminated in this match in Guadalajara, and after an encouraging AFCON campaign, the onus was on the Leopards to put the resurgent Reggae Boyz to the sword. A spirited match was not short on chances, though it was severely lacking in clinical edge.
