The composition of Group "K":
Portugal — Global football giant;
Colombia — Technical team from South America;
Uzbekistan — Asia's "white wolves";
DR Congo — Physically powerful representative of Africa.

We start the first round against a strong representative of South America. This match will undoubtedly define our further fate in the group.

The decisive match of the group stage will take place against the representative of Africa.
Victory over Venezuela — psychological advantage
As a reminder, our representatives recently defeated another representative of South America — Venezuela — in a penalty shootout (5:4). This victory caused the admiration of Latin American experts. Even foreign publications advised Venezuela to quit football and take up baseball. This instills great confidence in our players before the game with Colombia.
Dear fans, do you think our national team under the leadership of Fabio Cannavaro will be able to exit this difficult group? Which opponent do you consider the most dangerous for us?
