This dominant display highlighted Zambia's physical power and clinical finishing, making them a formidable opponent in the group stages. The match process was controlled by Zambia from the opening minutes, as they used their strength and pace to pin New Zealand back. They scored two goals in quick succession midway through the first half and never looked back, adding two more after the break to put the result beyond doubt. The standout performance came from Zambia's powerful striker, who netted a hat-trick and proved unmarkable for the New Zealand defense. The victory with a large goal difference immediately placed Zambia at the summit of their group table. The New Zealand coach acknowledged the superior physicality of the opposition, while Zambia's manager was thrilled with her team's focus and execution.
