Zambia’s national football team is gearing up for a high-stakes encounter against Ivory Coast as they aim to secure a spot in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament. The match, scheduled for June 17, 2023, at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium, promises to be a thrilling showdown with everything at stake.
Clatous Chama, a prominent figure in Zambian football, emphasizes the significance of the upcoming match. According to Chama’s remarks to the Times of Zambia, Ivory Coast has nothing to lose, adding an extra layer of sensitivity and unpredictability to the game.
