FULL TIME!

DR Congo pulls off one of the greatest World Cup shocks ever, drawing 1-1 with Portugal in their Group K opener!

Joao Neves put Portugal ahead after just six minutes, but Wissa equalized right before halftime.

Portugal's second-half efforts were poor, registering only 0.69 xG and seeing a Cancelo overhead kick disallowed for offside.

Ronaldo missed two chances, and Cancelo and Fernandes went close late, but Mpasi was rarely tested in goal for DR Congo.

Mpasi played a key role in setting up frequent counter-attacks.

Bakambu rattled the post and fired over from Sadiki's cutback, while Kapuadi headed wide as DR Congo registered 0.82 xG.

DR Congo looked more likely to win in the second half, blowing Group K wide open.

Colombia and Uzbekistan will fancy their chances now!

FULL-TIME!

Portugal and DR Congo finish 1-1.

Portugal wins another late corner, but Mpasi easily claims Fernandes' delivery in the air, unchallenged.

YELLOW CARD!

Araujo absolutely clatters Wissa after the DR Congo striker flicks the ball past him from a throw-in.

If that challenge had been a few yards closer to Portugal's goal, the Benfica defender might have seen red!

We're into the first of five added minutes in Houston!

Can DR Congo hold on for a point, or even claim all three?

WIDE!

DR Congo is playing with their backs to the wall, crowding the box as Fernandes takes aim from 20 yards.

The Manchester United playmaker's left-footed strike is pulled just wide of Mpasi's near post!

Banza loses out to Fernandes in midfield, and Joao Neves immediately looks for Conceicao with a long ball in behind the defense.

But Mpasi races out of his box to cut it out and clear the danger!

Semedo bundles Wissa to the ground, stopping another breakaway for DR Congo as the Newcastle striker attempts to get free.

The Portugal substitute is booked for the foul.

SAVED!

Cancelo pops up on the left and drills a fantastic ball across the face of goal.

Mpasi dives off his line to smother the cross before Ronaldo can get there!

Portugal has a mixed World Cup record against African teams.

They've lost twice to Morocco (1986 and 2022 quarterfinals) but are unbeaten against sub-Saharan African teams with three wins and a draw.

Could a late shock change that here?

SUB: Bakambu, who has run his blood to water for the Leopards, is replaced by fellow French-born striker Simon Banza.
