Barbra Banda Leads WAFCON 2026 Scoring with 5 Goals
Barbra Banda, a 26-year-old striker from Zambia, is the leading scorer at the ongoing CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) with five goals, following her contribution in Zambia's 2-1 victory over Malawi on Wednesday. Banda's impressive tally places her two goals ahead of Malawi's Temwa Chawinga and Ivory Coast's Inès Konan, both of whom have three goals.
Despite her individual success, Zambia's national team will not progress to the quarter-final stage of the tournament, having finished third in Group C, behind Nigeria and Malawi. The current top scorers of the 2026 WAFCON include Barbra Banda (Zambia) with five goals, Temwa Chawinga (Malawi), Inès Konan (Ivory Coast), and Marie Ngah (Cameroon) each with three goals, while Uchenna Kanu, Rasheedat Ajibade, and Asisat Oshoala from Nigeria have each scored two goals.
