Active in central role
Kayembe registered one shot (zero on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 1-0 loss to Colombia.
Analysis: Kayembe registered two crosses and three fouls committed across his 72 minutes in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Colombia, operating as a technically active presence in the central midfield area who contributed to DR Congo's best attacking moments before being replaced as the coaching staff sought fresh legs. The midfielder completed 13 passes as his side struggled to consistently retain possession against a Colombian midfield. His technical quality and ability to create from central areas give DR Congo an important creative option for the Uzbekistan fixture, where his delivery and forward runs will need to be more consistently supported by teammates if his side are to generate the chances needed for a result.
Creates chance
Kayembe had one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 1-1 draw versus Portugal.
Analysis: Kayembe created one chance during Wednesday's draw, as well as putting a shot on goal. The midfielder was decent throughout the match and got forward well, but his shot wasn't overly threatening. Volume could be hard to come by for Kayembe, as his actions tend to be more defensive with Congo playing on the counter.
