Quiet in draw Wissa recorded one cross (one accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus AFC Bournemouth. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 57th minute.

Impact Wissa made a fine run down the right shortly after halftime, delivering the cross that Joe Willock glanced narrowly wide with a header in Newcastle's clearest opportunity to level the score at 2-1 during a second-half period where Newcastle dominated. He registered zero shots across the full 90 minutes but his movement and intelligent running stretched Bournemouth's back line on multiple occasions. Wissa has now started all of Newcastle's three Premier League fixtures this season, contributing one goal and one assist.

Impact Wissa opened this 2026/27 scoring tally with an acrobatic finish from close range following a corner kick. The DR Congo forward has started both Newcastle matches this season and has posted strong numbers, notching a goal, an assist, six shots (two on target) and two chances created. Look for him to remain in the XI when the Magpies take on Bournemouth on Saturday, Sep. 5.

Assist in opener Wissa assisted once to go with four shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Liverpool. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 25th minute.

Impact Wissa was excellent to open the season, adding an assist to open the campaign, setting up Joe Willock for a second-half goal. Wissa wasn't at his best during his first season with Newcastle, but he looked back up to it during this opening match. The hope will be that he can carry this form consistently throughout the season.

Scores brace in friendly Wissa scored a brace in Saturday's 2-1 friendly win over Valencia, confirming he is in good shape ahead of the 2026/27 Premier League season.

Impact Wissa dealt with a knee injury at the start of last season that delayed his Newcastle debut until December, finishing his debut campaign with just one goal across 19 Premier League appearances following his move from Brentford. He however had a strong World Cup, scoring three goals in four appearances for DR Congo and this early preseason brace is an encouraging sign, and he could hold a bigger role under new coach Matthias Jaissle as Newcastle looks to build a fuller campaign around him this season.

Scores twice to book RO32 spot Wissa scored two goals to go with six shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-1 victory over Uzbekistan.

Impact Wissa scored two of DR Congo's three goals as they booked a place in the round of 32 with a 3-1 win over Uzbekistan. He also scored the goal against Portugal, meaning that he has scored three of his nation's four goals in the historic group stage. He won the penalty that he was then able to score himself. This was one of the three fouls that he drew. The two goals were from his two shots on target from his six shots in the game and he has scored all of his shots on target in the tournament.

Isolated in attack Wissa registered one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Colombia.

Impact Wissa registered one shot and one chance created across his 90 minutes in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Colombia, operating as the central striker in DR Congo's attack against a Colombian backline that largely kept him quiet throughout a match where his side generated very few clear-cut opportunities despite a disciplined and compact defensive display for 75 minutes. The forward won four duels as his side's primary outlet in attack, but was starved of service by a Colombia midfield that controlled the tempo and denied DR Congo any meaningful possession in the final third. His ability to hold the ball up and create space for teammates gives DR Congo an important attacking reference point heading into the must-win finale against Uzbekistan, where he will need far more support from midfield if his side are to produce the result needed to stay alive in Group K.
