The image captures seven young boys playing soccer on a reddish-brown dirt field in Ngalula, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The environment is rural, characterized by sparse vegetation including scattered trees and bushes on hilly terrain in the background. Several simple, single-story structures with reddish-brown walls and dark roofs are visible amongst the greenery. The sky is overcast. In the mid-ground, a light brown soccer ball is airborne to the left of center. Directly below it, a boy in an orange t-shirt and dark pants runs towards the right. To his right, a boy in a light blue t-shirt and shorts, wearing brown sandals, runs in the same direction. Further into the mid-ground, a boy in a light blue t-shirt and shorts, with orange sandals, also runs right. Near a set of crude goalposts made from thin wooden poles, a boy in a yellow t-shirt with the number "10" and dark shorts, wearing yellow sandals, runs right, focusing on the ball. Another boy in a yellow t-shirt and dark shorts is seen running further right. A partial view of a seventh child in a blue shirt is visible behind the goalposts on the right side of the frame. A dirt path winds into the background on the far right.
