City striker Patson Daka bagged his first goal for Zambia in 20 months in their opening game of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, scoring a superb stoppage-time header to rescue a point against Mali.
Leicester’s no.20 made an excellent run between the centre-backs to make a crisp connection with his diving header to seal a 1-1 draw for his nation in their first Group A fixture, denying fellow Fox Woyo Coulibaly, on loan at Sassuolo, a clean sheet.
The celebration that followed was not quite so smooth; Daka attempted the cartwheel into somersault celebration sometimes seen at the King Power Stadium, but landed flat on his face.
