Zambia and Nigeria have secured their spots in the women's football tournament at the Paris Olympics after emerging victorious in the fourth round of African qualifying playoffs.
Zambia faced off against Morocco in a tightly contested two-legged playoff, with the Copper Queens managing to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit to claim a 3-2 aggregate victory. The decisive match took place at Moulay Hassan Stadium, where Orlando Pride striker Barbra Banda played a pivotal role in Zambia's success. Banda opened the scoring in the 38th minute and later sealed the win with a penalty conversion in the 105th minute.
