Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Coach Kaluba Kangwa has hailed Zambia\u2019s victory at the COSAFA U17 Girls Championship which was part of the 2020 Region 5 Games in Maseru, Lesotho. The Zambian girls on Monday thrashed Botswana 4-0 to lift the COSAFA U17 Girls Championship.<\/p>\n

In a post-match interview with FAZ Media\u2019s Mike Mubanga, Kaluba said the girls triumph shows improvement in the women\u2019s game. \u201cThe victory is so special to the girls and so special to women\u2019s football, and so special to the football association of Zambia, parents, teachers, the fans and everyone who supports women football,\u201d Kaluba said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe would like to appreciate them (stakeholders) for this kind of support, without their support women\u2019s football would not have been to this level.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can see the growth of women\u2019s football in Zambia. Now we want to be getting medals and cups,\u201d he said. Zambia were runners up at the same event last year in South Africa after losing to Tanzania in the final.<\/p>\n
