DR Congo stick to pre-World Cup plan to meet Denmark, Chile in friendlies
KINSHASA: The Democratic Republic of Congo have no plans to change their warm-up preparations for the World Cup despite a warning from the United States that the team must isolate for 21 days before arriving in the country, a team official said on Saturday.

The team had planned a three-day trip to Kinshasa next week as a celebratory send-off before heading to their first World Cup in 52 years but that was canceled before the US warning. “We have kept our training program.
