It seems like Youssuf Mulumbu, the captain of the Congo Leopards, expressed regret and apologized to the public for the team’s elimination from the World Cup qualifiers for Brazil 2014. Despite being ahead of Libya in the group standings, Congo realized that qualification was no longer possible with only 5 points.
Mulumbu acknowledged the disappointment of the fans during the match against Cameroon and asked for their forgiveness. However, he expressed confidence in the team’s future, especially in upcoming competitions like the qualifiers for the next Africa Cup of Nations (CAN). Mulumbu highlighted the presence of young talents like Cédric Mongongu and Gabriel Zakuani, suggesting that they could be crucial in improving Congo’s football in the future.
Although the team faced a draw against Cameroon (0-0) in the World Cup qualifiers, Mulumbu mentioned that they would play against Togo in the final match with determination and a sense of honor. He emphasized his commitment to continue working towards bringing in new players to strengthen the team, with the ultimate goal of being more competitive and potentially qualifying for future World Cups.
