Zambia Women’s National Team Arrives in Morocco for Crucial Olympic Qualifier
The Zambia women’s national team, fondly known as the Copper Queens, has safely arrived in Morocco ahead of their decisive return leg match against the Atlas Lionesses in the final round of the 2024 Paris Olympic Qualifiers.
Travelling via a chartered Ethiopian Airlines flight, the team landed at Rabat-Sale Airport on Saturday evening, marking the beginning of their crucial mission to overturn a 2-1 deficit suffered in the first leg at Ndola’s Levy Mwanawasa Stadium.
Coach Bruce Mwape’s side faces a daunting challenge as they aim to secure a historic return to the Olympic Games after their memorable debut appearance at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. With their sights set on victory, the Copper Queens must produce a stellar performance in Tuesday’s high-stakes encounter at the Prince Moulay El Hassan Stadium in Rabat.
The upcoming match promises to be a test of skill, determination, and resilience for the Copper Queens as they seek to overcome the odds and emerge triumphant. With kick-off scheduled for 8:00 pm local time, the team is ready to give their all in pursuit of Olympic qualification.
