    The stunning city of Rabat once again welcomed 12 African giants with an eye-catching opening ceremony featuring dazzling mix of traditional music, dance, fireworks, and vibrant display of culture at the Olympic Stadium.

    The opening ceremony showcased a dynamic blend of singing, choreography, and acrobatics, highlighting the spirit of African unity ahead of the kick-off match between the Atlas Lionesses and the Copper Queens of Zambia.

    Once the traditional showcase concluded, proceedings officially began with the fixture. The game commenced with a minute’s silence in memory of former Nigeria goalkeeper Peter Rufai who passed away on July 3,2025.

    Barbra Banda, skipper for the Copper Queens opened her account just 58 seconds into the match, giving the North African side a tough assignment to accomplish.

    The hosts soon responded in the 12th minute through a spot kick , but Kundananji restored the lead for the visitors in the 27th minute.  Chebbak came through for Morocco with a superb long range finish to grab a point in the dying minutes.

    Banda was adjudged the Player of the Match.
