In Konongo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, a group of approximately eleven children is observed playing soccer on a red-brown dirt field. The scene unfolds under natural daylight, casting long shadows to the right, indicative of early morning or late afternoon. The children, appearing to be boys, are engaged in active play across the frame. Several wear light-colored shirts (white or light blue) and dark shorts, while others wear yellow jerseys with dark shorts, suggesting informal team divisions. At least two children are barefoot, while others wear dark footwear. Specific individuals and actions include: * A child in a light blue shirt and jeans is positioned centrally, running to the left. * To the left, another child in a yellow jersey with the number "13" on the back runs forward. * On the right side of the frame, a soccer ball rests on the ground. Three children in yellow jerseys are positioned near it, with one actively engaged with the ball. * Several other children are scattered across the field, running in various directions, indicating dynamic movement within the game. The environment features a cluster of structures in the background, characteristic of a rural or semi-urban settlement. These buildings are primarily constructed from reddish-brown mud bricks or earth, with roofs made of corrugated metal sheets or thatched materials. Patches of dry grass and scattered trees are visible between and behind the buildings. Distant hills or mountains, covered in vegetation, form the horizon. Scattered debris, including plastic bottles and other refuse, is present on the dirt field in the foreground.
