Zambia’s Copper Queens are gearing up for a crucial away match against Ghana’s Black Queens in the first leg of their 2024 Olympics Qualifiers this Friday. Midfielder Susan Katongo acknowledges the pressure her team will face playing away from home but remains confident in their ability to secure a favorable result.
The Copper Queens aim to make a second consecutive Olympic appearance after debuting in Tokyo 2020. However, Katongo warns against underestimating Ghana, who boast a strong recent run of form, having lost just once and conceded only twice in their last 12 games. Zambia, on the other hand, remains unbeaten since the World Cup in official matches, excluding the COSAFA tournament featuring only local players.
Katongo’s belief will be key to the Copper Queens’ hopes of bringing back a positive result from Ghana. Fans across Zambia will be eagerly following the match, cheering on the Copper Queens as they take on their West African opponents in the quest for Olympic qualification.
This crucial encounter is a must-watch for football lovers of all ages, as the Copper Queens look to take a step closer to achieving their Olympic dreams. Get ready to support the team as they showcase their skills and determination on the field!
