It is perhaps no surprise that Patson Daka wrote himself into the history books by scoring for Zambia at the Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday. The 25-year-old has had to bide his time at Leicester City this season, spending a large part of it on the bench, but he has kept working hard and arrived in Ivory Coast with a point to prove.
In Zambia’s first game he provided an assist as the Chipolopolo drew with the Democratic Republic of the Congo before scoring in the 1-1 draw with Tanzania and becoming the first player to find the net in every Afcon possible: the Under-17, Under-20, Under-23 and senior competition.
