Seven countries have officially secured places in the Round of 32 at the ongoing FIFA World Cup following the latest round of group stage matches.
The teams that have already booked their spots in the knockout stage are Colombia, Norway, France, Argentina, Mexico, Germany and the United States.
Colombia became the latest nation to progress after edging past DR Congo with a hard fought 1-0 victory in the early hours of Wednesday.
Defender Daniel Muñoz scored the decisive goal in the second half to hand the South American side all three points and confirm their place in the next round of the tournament.
The victory moved Colombia to the top of Group K with six points, ahead of Portugal, DR Congo and Uzbekistan.
Colombia will round off their group stage campaign with a crucial clash against Portugal later this weekend as they look to finish top of the group heading into the knockout rounds.
With the competition gathering momentum, more teams are expected to confirm their places in the Round of 32 as the remaining group matches are played.
