Zambia’s Copper Queens Jump to 64th Place in Latest Fifa Rankings

The Zambia Women’s National Team has reached a historic milestone, climbing to 64th place in the latest FIFA Women’s World Rankings, a one-spot improvement from their 65th position in March 2024. This achievement marks their highest-ever ranking, a testament to the team’s hard work and recent successes.

The Copper Queens’ rise in the rankings is largely attributed to their impressive qualification for the Paris 2024 Olympic Women’s Football Tournament, following a decisive victory over Morocco. This significant achievement not only boosts their global standing but also positions them as a formidable force in African women’s football.

Zambia’s ascent sees them surpass Ghana, making them Africa’s fourth highest-ranked team. They now trail only Nigeria, South Africa, and Morocco on the continent, reflecting the rapid progress and growing competitiveness of the team.

With the Paris 2024 Olympics approaching, the Copper Queens are poised for further achievements. Their recent ranking success adds to the excitement and anticipation surrounding their participation in the prestigious tournament. As the team continues to train and prepare, there is a strong belief that they can achieve even greater heights on the global stage.

The latest FIFA ranking is a source of pride and inspiration for the Zambian team and their supporters. It underscores the importance of continued investment in women’s football and the potential for future successes.

Congratulations to the Zambia Women’s National Team on this remarkable achievement! The journey to Paris 2024 promises to be an exciting one, filled with hope and determination as the Copper Queens aim to make their mark on the world stage.
