All the team bought Zambian shirts to watch the game and it was great to be part of what I think is the best final I have ever seen! Our nephew, Zak, also wore his Zambian football shirt in celebration of this great victory. After the whole Zambian football team died in 1993 in Gabon when their plane crashed, this victory in the same place holds special significance!!!!
The parties continued all through the night as Zambian won the African Cup of Nations. It was an amazing game, with Zambia winning 8-7 on penalties. It was tense.... people even passing out from the stress - I kid you not!It was also great to see that their first response was to thank God and sing 'Kalombo Mwane'
It was great and many people are enjoying a day off to celebrate!
