Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>GREEN Buffaloes Women Football Club midfielder Irene \u2018Xavi\u2019 Lungu has been named in the best 11 squad for the group stage at the CAF Women Champions League.<\/p>\n

Lungu is the only Zambian in the team dominated by players from host club ASFAR of Morocco and South African giants Mamelodi Sundowns, who are the defending champions.<\/p>\n

Lungu shined in Buffaloes\u2019 4-0 win over Liberian side Determined Girls in the opening match on October 30. She provided three assists to earn the player-of-the-match accolade. Lungu scored with his left in the 2-1 loss to ASFAR last Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Buffaloes, who qualified for the CAF Champions League by virtue of being Council of Southern Africa Football Associations queens, were eliminated after losing 2-0 to Simba Queens.<\/p>\n
