In the opening match of the 2026 World Cup between Colombia and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Daniel Muñoz scored a controversial goal that was later disallowed by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR). The goal occurred in the seventh minute after a cross from Johan Mojica, with Muñoz heading the ball past the goalkeeper.

Despite Muñoz attempting to stay onside, the Colombian team's slow defense allowed the Congolese defender to react. This decision sparked debate among fans and analysts, highlighting the fine margins involved in offside calls. Muñoz had previously missed another scoring opportunity earlier in the game.
