The Democractic Republic of Congo coach Claude Le Roy believes his side will not be coming to the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations as favourites but as underdogs capable of eradicating the dreams of some big teams.
.
The Leopards are coming back to the continental scene after six years of absence since their last last appearance in 2006.
.
'' We are favourites of the competition, far from that. But we can consider ourselves as underdogs and can create surprises and perhaps spoil some dreams of topflights, ''  the Frenchman said.
.
'' There are three teams I see as top favourites for the tournament - Algeria, Ghana and Ivory Coast. I don't think any other team would be able to clinch the trophy besides one from the above three '' he added.

Yes they are underdogs but anything can still happen.
