Zambia captain, Barbara Banda, has named Nigerian star Asisat Oshoala in her ideal 5-a-side team. In an exclusive interview with FIFA.com, Banda praised Oshoala, considering her among the best players in the world.
Banda’s acknowledgment of Oshoala highlights the Nigerian forward’s exceptional talent and global recognition. Oshoala, known for her speed, skill, and goal-scoring ability, has been a key player for both her club and the Nigerian national team.
At just 24 years old, Banda is already regarded as one of the best female footballers to emerge from Africa. Her impressive performances on the field have earned her widespread acclaim and a leading role in the Zambian national team.
Banda will lead the Copper Queens at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, marking Zambia’s second consecutive appearance at the Olympics following their debut in Tokyo four years ago. Under her captaincy, the team aims to build on their previous experience and make a significant impact in the tournament.
As the Copper Queens prepare for the 2024 Olympics, Banda’s leadership and talent, combined with inspiration from players like Oshoala, will be crucial for their success. The inclusion of Oshoala in Banda’s ideal team underscores the mutual respect and recognition among top female footballers in Africa.
