Egypt’s Women’s AFCON loss to Zambia

The Egyptian women's national team suffered a heavy 6-0 defeat against Zambia in their opening match of the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations, hosted by Morocco. Zambia scored their first five goals through a "super hat-trick" by Barbara Banda (4 goals and an assist), and will now turn their attention to facing Nigeria later. Meanwhile, Egypt’s team is aiming to bounce back from the loss against Malawi in their upcoming match. This is Egypt's first participation after a long absence, and their goal is to reach the knockout stages for the first time, as the tournament expands to include 16 teams for the first time.
