The Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) has extended heartfelt congratulations to the Zambia Under-20 Women’s National Team for their triumphant performance at the COSAFA Championship.
FAZ President Andrew Kamanga commended the team for reaffirming Zambia’s reputation as a dominant force in regional football. The Under-20 squad capped off their stellar campaign with a 1-0 victory over Mozambique, completing the round-robin tournament with an impressive 100% winning record.
“On behalf of my executive and the Zambian football community, I wish to congratulate the Zambia Under-20 team and technical bench for this sweet victory at the COSAFA Championship,” Kamanga said.
He highlighted the recent successes of Zambia’s national teams, noting that the Copper Queens’ victory at the COSAFA tournament earlier and now the Under-20 team’s triumph demonstrate the country’s rising football prowess. Kamanga expressed optimism for the Under-17 girls and boys teams, who are set to compete in their respective COSAFA tournaments next month, drawing inspiration from their senior counterparts.
“This adds to football’s gift to the nation during Zambia’s 60th Independence anniversary celebrations. The Chipolopolo’s qualification to the AFCON a few days ago was another great achievement for our football,” Kamanga added.
The victory serves as a testament to the growth and dedication within Zambian football, cementing the nation’s position as a powerhouse in the region.
Congratulations. But what is the objective of the senior Chipolopolo men’s team qualifying to the Africa Cup. It is to go to the Africa cup to go and do what? Competitors or spectators? If that has been defined, what preparations have been lined up to ensure the objective of the going to the Africa cup is met. Preparations must be innovative and beyond the normal friendly matches. For example, Is the national team going to be attached to the Real Madrid tecnical bench and academy for 2 months during preparations, where is the MOU,yes you heard me. Above all congratulations to FAZ
Kwena we are tired of watching others winning the trophy. If we dont win this one then the whole trip will be a failure. Even just reaching the final is as bad as not qualifying. They say a miss is as good as a mile.
“We tried” is vocabulary for failures
Amidst the crippling blackouts, at least we have something to smile about. Bravo girls for carrying our flag high and making our nation proud!
Our U20 women’s national football team beat Mozambique 1-0 to win the COSAFA Cup, our girls can play guys!!
Ball control, passing, movement, marking, what!! We just need to work on our finishing, World class material 4 sho…
Kapokola has no chance against Kamanga in the race for the FAZ Presidency. Kamanga has concrete achievements to point to for both men and women’s soccer.
Stop dreaming. What concrete achievements? How many times did he fail to make it to the finals which feat we dont even count because we have always been there.?
Why Kamanga. Shame on CAF and their CAF affiliation with weak FAZ. Barbra Banda kuno chalo. She doesn’t need your tournament , you said she’s not eligible to play in and she doesn’t need your winning bonuses.
Real things happening for her here, it’s all hard work, humbleness and respect.
What are you talking about?
