The coach of the 'palancas negras' called the goalkeepers Kadu (Sporting de Espinho) and Hugo Marques (Farense), the midfielders Milson (Marítimo) and Show (Boavista), and the forwards Fábio Abreu (Moreirense), Gelson Dala (Rio Ave) and Mateus (Penafiel).
Angola visits the Democratic Republic of Congo on November 14, in a game to be played in Kinshasa, and three days later receives the Congolese national team, in Luanda, in games of the third and fourth round of Group D of qualification for CAN2021.
With two rounds played, the Angolan team occupies fourth and last place in the group, still without any points, after having lost with Gambia (3-1) and Gabon (2-1), while the Democratic Republic of Congo is the third place, with two points. Gambia and Gabon both have four points.
The 33rd African Cup of Nations was scheduled for next year, but was eventually postponed to 2022 - despite retaining the CAN2021 designation - so as not to coincide with the Copa America and Euro2020, which were postponed due to the covid-19 pandemic.
