Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Zambia Women\u2019s national team made easy work of Morocco side, Phoenix Marrakech FC thrashing them 6-0 in an international friendly match. Head coach Bruce Mwape made seven changes to the team that drew 1-1 with Morocco keeping only Mary Wilombe, Martha Tembo, Agness Musesa and Misozi Zulu from the team that started against the Atlas Lionesses of Morocco.<\/p>\n

Mary Wilombe was made captain for the day while Leticia Lungu started between the sticks with Ochumba Oseke Lubanji leading the attack after shaking off a small injury that kept her out of the draw against Morocco.<\/p>\n

Zambia started the match strong with Avell Chitundu heading in the opener ten minutes into the match off a Wilombe free kick. Misozi Zulu made it 2-0 in the 24th minute with a fine finish inside the box benefiting from a Martha Tembo cross.<\/p>\n

Lanky forward, Ochumba Oseke Lubanji rounded off the Phoenix goalkeeper Raouia Belafquih to slot home the third goal for the Copper Queens in the 39th minute.<\/p>\n

Chitundu completed her brace a minute to half time after slotting home a rebound from close range after Noria Sosala\u2019s goal bound shot was blocked. Misozi Zulu made it 5-0 in the 66th minute before skipper Barbra Banda could come from the bench to seal the win in the 79th minute.<\/p>\n

The Copper Queens may play their final friendly match on Tuesday with an unnamed nation to complete their preparations for the 2022 Morocco Women\u2019s Africa Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n

The Copper Queens start their campaign against Cameroon at the Mohammed V stadium on July 3 before facing North Africans Tunisia three days later. They will wrap up their Group B engagement with a tie against debutants Togo on 9 July.<\/p>\n
