Zambia have lost 5-0 to Spain to end their 2023 FIFA Women Cup journey in New Zealand.
The Copper Queens will play Costa Rica in the fina Group C match but the result will be meaningless to their progress at the competition.
Zambia also lost their opening 5-0 to Japan.
Japan beat Costa Rica 2-0 earlier today to confirm their place in the pre-quarterfinals.
Both Japan and Spain now have six points and will play each other in the final group match to determine who tops the pool.
