The Tokyo Olympics 2020 return to the fold with another women's football match this weekend as China PR Women take on Zambia Women on Saturday. Both teams were dismal in their opening games and have a point to prove in this match.
Zambia Women suffered one of their heaviest defeats in their previous game and slumped to a stunning 10-3 loss against the Netherlands. The Zambians have several issues to address and will want to avoid another debacle this weekend.
China PR Women were also shocked on their first day and were effectively toothless against Brazil's formidable squad. The Chinese have been drafted into a difficult group and will want to secure all three points in this fixture.
