Zambia

Zambia and Bay FC's Racheal Kundananji and South Africa and Tigres' Thembi Kgatlana returned to their brilliant best in October with superb performances for club and country.

Despite being the current holder of the CAF Women's Player of the Year title, Orlando Pride and Zambia forward Barbra Banda says she is honoured to have been nominated again for the award.

Kansas City Current's Temwa Chawinga may be leading the NWSL Golden Boot race, and be on track to win it back to back, but Washington Spirit striker gift Monday bagged a hat-trick recently to shoot her up the standings.

Orlando Pride star Barbra Banda has been ruled out for the rest of the season with an abductor injury, the NWSL club announced Saturday.

The Women's Africa Cup of Nations 2025 (WAFCON) takes place in Morocco from July 5 to 26, and will feature 12 teams from across the continent, including defending champions South Africa.

Zambia head coach Nora Hauptle doesn't regret the swagger she and her team exhibited ahead of their Women's Africa Cup of Nations quarterfinal against Nigeria, even though the Copper Queens were ultimately humbled.

Ed Dove reacts to Zambia's 5-0 defeat to Nigeria and a Women's AFCON quarterfinal exit for NWSL stars Barbra Banda and Racheal Kundananji.

Ed Dove thinks Nigeria have unlocked the potential of one of Africa's best attacking players as Esther Okoronkwo shines in Nigeria's big win over Zambia.

Relentless Nigeria delivered a display worthy of champions while neutralising Zambia's fearsome attacking threat to demolish the Copper Queens 5-0 in Friday's first Women's Africa Cup of Nations quarterfinal at the Stade Larbi Zaouli in Casablanca.

The first Women's AFCON quarterfinals on Friday see one match up, Nigeria v Zambia, that we wish were the final, while the other should be a walk in the park for hosts Morocco.
