Shepolopolo Magnanimous in Cosafa Final Defeat

Shepolopolo Zambia assistant coach Florence Mwila has congratulated rivals Malawi for a well deserved 2023 COSAFA Women’s Championship triumph in South Africa.

Malawi dethroned 2022 Champions Zambia via a 2-1 win in the final at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Sunday.

Malawi scored in each half with Zambia grabbing the consolation in between.

In a post-match comment, Mwila said Malawi played well.

“It was a tough match as anticipated,” Mwila said .

“We are just proud of the girls. Look at how much they fought despite most of them coming to the tournament for the first time,” she said.

“They really put up a good fight and congratulations to Malawi. Malawi played well and carried the day,” Mwila said.

  1. Florence, congratulations to you too, you are the best coach. And cosafa loves Florence Mwila.

  2. I was present in the stadium for this game. Physical aspects continue to hinder our girls’ performance, we need taller players. Please selectors, please! Even the Malawian ‘he-women’ were physically more imposing on our players during this game, I ended up leaving the stadium before full time in frustration.
