    <peacedove>Underdogs...what.?Zambia the nation that lost its entire football team in air crash in 1993 became the champion
    of Africa by defeating the favourite in a penalty shoot out yesterday.No one gave Zambia a chance against Ivory Coast.
    Ivory Coast with their international stars were unable to deliver, even Drogba missed a penalty.
    Well done Zambia.<ok>

    Wasn't the best match if I'm honest, Zambia deserved to win it and like Billy said earlier the penalty shootout was top class <ok>

    Awful match in an awful tournament. Why they see the need to have it once every two years, I'll never know. Making it even worse is that because they are changing it to odd years to avoid the World Cup which means we get another one next year. Hopefully Cameroon don't qualify again and we should be fine.

    It was great to hear the Zambian players singing in support of their penalty takers and I'm glad they won in a stadium that meant so much to them.
