About 16 hours after Lionel Messi became the first man to appear in six different World Cups, Portugal’s<\/b> Cristiano Ronaldo will become the second. He starts up front and will be the first man to score in six different World Cups if he finds the net.<\/p>\n

Manchester City defender Ruben Dias is out injured but his former City team-mate Bernardo Silva, Chelsea winger Pedro Neto and Manchester United skipper Bruno Fernandes are in from the start.<\/p>\n

West Ham right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Newcastle forward Yoane Wissa are among the British-based players named in DR Congo’s<\/b> starting line-up.<\/p>\n

Axel Tuanzebe, who played in the Premier League for Burnley last season, is part of a likely five-man defence, while Watford’s Edo Kayembe starts in midfield.<\/p>\n
