RABAT, Morocco — Zambia captain Barbra Banda has been named the TotalEnergies Woman of the Match following the Copper Queens’ 2-1 victory over Malawi at the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
The star striker produced a captain’s performance, opening the scoring early and finishing the group stage as the tournament’s leading goalscorer with five goals.
Despite Zambia’s elimination on head-to-head criteria, Banda’s influential display earned her the individual award.
