Having seen Zambia fail to progress from the group stage in the 2018 Women’s AFCON and finish third in the 2022 edition despite having world class forwards Racheal Kundananji and Barbra Banda, Hauptle believes that she can get Zambia to perform convincingly.
I’m excited by the team’s enormous potential. Recently, they have regularly participated in finals, but have not yet been able to perform convincingly. I know what we need to do as a team.”
