Shepolopolo Zambia women’s team this afternoon crashed Malawi 7-0 in an Equatorial Guinea 2012 African Womens Championship qualifier.

Zambia dominated their guests in the first leg match played at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka this afternoon to take a 4-0 lead into the break.

Noria Sosala scored her first of two goals on the day with less than two minutes played.

Kabange Mupopo made it 2-0 on 4 minutes before Sosala completed her brace in the 28th minute.

Mwila Bowa stretched Zambia’s lead to 4-0 10 minutes before the break.

Anne Kabaiji and Misozi Zulu were on target in the 50th and 57th minute respectively.

Man-of-the-match Bowa completed her brace in the 79th minute to give Zambia a comfortable first leg win.

The two teams meet in the return leg in a fortnight’s time.

Overall winner will face Banyana Banyana South Africa in the second round in May with the winner qualifying for the Equatorial Guinea tournament this November.

  1. Congrates ladies in the form of gentlemen. 7-0.? hell no. where was Malawi to be thumped like that? Fire the coach and in gage me as the new coach.

  2. While Chipolopolo means bullet, “shipolopolo” in a Namibian language means “Useless”. Just an interesting observation… Good luck “Shepolopolo”…

    Yes language is like that ambigious .. here lightening is called SALAMA < this same word means good in swahili, laying facing upward, in my own language 'chitonga'

  4. ‘Man of te match’, ‘Woman of the match’ or indeed ‘Player of the match”. I honestly do not know the correct way of putting it. Semantics class may help. Congrats girls.
