By Peter Okwoche

**Zambia qualified for the quarter-finals of the Africa Cup of Nations with a confident victory over Gabon.**Rainford Kalaba opened the scoring with a deft chip over Gabon keeper Ebang Ovono, before James Chamanga made it two in the second half.

Substitute Fabrice Do Marcolino scored late on for Gabon but it was not enough to see them through in a tight group.

Gabon will be bitterly disappointed after needing only a draw to progress, but Zambia deserved their victory.
