Shepolopolo on Saturday rallied from two-down at halftime to beat Ghana 3-2 in a pre-2018 Women’s AFCON friendly played at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka.

Rachael Kundanaji’s second half hat-trick fueled Shepolopolo’s dramatic comeback to clinch the home win against the 2018 Women’s AFCON hosts.

This is after The Black Queens took the lead courtesy of goals from Portia Boakye and Elizabeth Addo in the 21st and 33rd minutes respectively.

But Kundanaji struck in the 65th, 77th and 85th minutes to seal Shepolopolo’s victory in their first official match since entering pre-tournament camp on October 14 in Lusaka.

Shepolopolo are in Group B in Ghana together with Kenya, Banyana-Banyana South Africa and defending champions The Super Falcons Nigeria who will be based at Cape Coast.

Hosts Ghana are in Group A in Accra and have been drawn against Algeria , Mali and 2016 runners-up Cameroon.

  1. Why Shepolopolo don’t bring the players playing abroad? We know of Barbara Banda, and another one playing in USA.

  2. Good one shepolopolo , looking as they truly are females. Don’t look like some sexually hard to classify beings. Look clean and carry your bodies beautifully , like boxer laira Ali, and yet display hard to crack charecter when challenged in the spot.
