콩고민주공화국 '동상' 팬이 마침내 월드컵에 진출했습니다...

GUADALAJARA, Mexico -- Congo DR 's famous living statue finally made his FIFA World Cup debut on Tuesday.

Michel Nkuka Mboladinga, who gained fame during the Africa Cup of Nations for posing as a statue of Congo's assassinated independence leader Patrice Lumumba for the entirety of games, attended Congo's match against Colombia after missing their opener against Portugal because of Ebola quarantine requirements.

Lumumba Vea, as the sharply dressed supporter is known for his resemblance to the slain leader, was at his seat about an hour before the game at Estadio Akron.
