Copper Bullets - Ep 4

from Amazing Sport Stories · host BBC World Service

One year after the crash, Zambia awaits the Africa Cup of Nations final. Football writer Ponga Liwewe and superfan Melody Mwala describe the fever-pitch atmosphere of hope in the country. Fast-forward 18 years, and Zambia are preparing for the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations final in Libreville, Gabon, near the 1993 crash site. Despite fading on the international scene, Zambia’s run to the final is remarkable. Facing Africa’s best team, Ivory Coast, led by stars like Didier Drogba and Yaya Toure, Zambia’s underdogs have a chance to honour the legacy of the team whose future was snatched away from them. #AmazingSportStories
