It was very easy for anyone to underrate this Zambia team. They may have had players who are not well known and not as big but they had determination that knew no bound. Football is not just technique, sometimes the will power determines the ultimate winner. Their coach said they had a mountain ahead but they wanted to reach it's summit. Happy that they made history near the place they lost their entire team in 93, so emotional. You could feel that it meant so much for them.


Where did they lose the 1993 squad?


Gabon through a plane clash. lost all team members except one player.

When it got to penas, Zambia were no longer underdogs...and stars have always had problems with shootouts.
Slaying Senegal, Ghana, and Ivory coast was no mean fete.

Congrats are in order for the Chipolopolo now the KK11 can rest in peace as history has been written.
Is this the emergence of a new football powerhouse in Africa?

I was so happy, juggling between the Las Vegas 7s and the finals. VIVA Chipolopolo, self belief is great!!!!

Man city, chelsea and arsenal players missed penalties for CIV, what stars can do!!!

Ivory Coast didn't concede a single goal at the tournament, sad they lost on penalties. The Drogba, Toure, Kalou generation is the best they've ever had lakini bado hakuna trophy.

This is by far the most entertaining final I've seen in a long time (in all competitions, including CL), it was end to end gripping stuff despite the lack of goals. I was very impressed by the adventurous play of Chipolopolo, they were show boating (sp) in the midfield and looked very confident. I actually believed Ivory Coast had enough to win it but were quite unlucky not to score. Drogba blamed the turf for the miss but he should have been more careful as he placed the ball on the spot.

And clearly EPL players are poor on the penalty spot. Well in Zambia. I hope SS repeat the closing ceremony, I missed it and saw the highlights this morning - the 3D show was exceptional!

Asi!!! Maybe that is what he meant. @Impunity...He is lucky he did not say it is black...Otherwise we would be all over his arse!!!
...And i hear that wayward penalty ball has been retrieved somewhere in Kabul...
...Poor Yaya toure...Did that boy not cry!!!
