Zambia he will play his first world Women’s this year and, even the coach Bruce Mwape he knows that his opponents will have more experience, he does not see the African team as losers. The Mwape team is the first from Zambia to qualify for a World Cup, men’s or women’s, opening their campaign in Group C against the former champions Japanese before facing Spain and Costa Rica.
Mwape said Zambia will not go to the tournament from July 20 to August 20 just to make up the numbers. “Although we are rookies, what I will say is that we don’t just want to add numbers to the tournament. We have little experience but we can challenge any team. It won’t be easy, but there are others who are thinking about us. will go as losers. As for me, we are going to compete.”
Qualifying for the World Cup has changed football in Zambia, “with many young women aspiring to play for the country,” Mwape said.
Asked what his team’s aim would be in the finals in Australia and New Zealand, Mwape added: “Winning the World Cup will really shake the whole world because if we do well, I’m sure people will be surprised. “Some to them I don’t know where Zambia is. For them, it’s a case of looking at the world map to find out. But nothing is impossible. The results can go either way, and success is possible.”
