It seems here that the buck is betting on DR Congo 's name and pre - eminence. He probably did not see the mediocrity in which they moved in the first two games. As far as the likelihood of plastering the best thirds to qualify, these are practically non-existent.
Clearly better Zimbabwe's presence lost to Egypt, but against Uganda (1-1) lost the victory by clear misfortune. With victory, he looks forward to direct qualifying (if Uganda loses from Egypt) while the third place at 4b gives him a very good chance. Whether as a racing image or a motive, I do not think Zimbabwe should be the underdog.
