Zambia wins Africa Cup of Nations

Zambia has won the African Cup of Nations, beating pre-tournament favourite Ivory Coast 8-7 on penalties in a nerve-racking final at Stade de l'Amitie.Stophira Sunzu scored the deciding sudden-death penalty after Gervinho missed his spot kick for Ivory Coast.
It's Zambia's first African title and came, poignantly, in the same city where 18 Zambian internationals died in a plane crash in 1993 in the country's worst sporting disaster.
Ivory Coast captain Didier Drogba had missed a 70th-minute penalty for the title favourite to send the dramatic decider to extra time and then a shootout.
