Zambia to Play Zimbabwe, Kenya in Malawi Tournament

The Chipolopolo Boys are set to participate in a four-nation tournament hosted by Malawi. Joining them will be Zimbabwe and Kenya. The tournament is scheduled to take place in Lilongwe from March 18 to March 26, 2024.

The Football Association of Malawi released a statement saying, “The first tournament will feature the senior men’s national teams (A-teams) of our four countries.
This tournament presents a valuable opportunity for our national teams to face quality opposition in preparation for upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup and 2025 AFCON qualifying campaigns.”

Additionally, there will be a concurrent youth tournament for the U20 national teams during the same period. This youth tournament aims to develop and expose elite youth talent while preparing teams for the upcoming 2024 AFCON Under 20 qualifiers later this year.
