  "summary": "The Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo) will be without their captain, Jules Ahoka, for the upcoming second leg of their 2027 Africa U-23 Cup of Nations second qualifying round tie against Nigeria's Olympic Eagles. Ahoka sustained an injury during the first leg, which was played at the TP Mazembe Stadium in Lubumbashi. The midfielder is currently returning to England for treatment at the request of his club, Sunderland. His absence is a significant setback for the Congolese team, as they will need to defend their 2-0 lead against Nigeria's Olympic Eagles, who will also be without Zadok Yohanna and Daniel Daga for the game.",
