The famous DR Congo supporter, Michel Kuka Mboladinga, was missing from the final group stage match against Uzbekistan.
Details: Despite the high stakes, Michel Kuka Mboladinga—known for embodying DR Congo politician Patrice Lumumba—was unable to attend the clash with Uzbekistan. Luckily for him, the African side triumphed over their rivals with a 3-1 victory, securing a place in the World Cup playoffs.
Taking Mboladinga's place was another Congo fan, who came dressed as Mobutu Sese Seko—the ruler who led the country from 1965 to 1997.
