LUSAKA, September 25, 2026 — The Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC) wishes to update the general public on the broadcast of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying campaign for the Zambia National Soccer Team. Non-Broadcast of Away Matches ZNBC will not broadcast the away matches in the qualifiers, including the match between Algeria and Zambia, being played in Algeria this evening.

Fans across the country can watch the live coverage of the home games on ZNBC TV,starting with the Zambia vs Togo match which will be played at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola on Tuesday 29th September 2026.
