History
Congo DR returned to compete in the CAF qualifiers for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Their second round opponent, Equatorial Guinea withdrew,[5] seeing Congo DR through to the third round to face Cameroon. After suffering a 0–2 loss in the first leg at Yaoundé, Congo DR built a 2–0 lead at home only to see a late goal by Ajara Nchout knock them out of the tournament with a 2–3 loss on aggregate.[6]
