Nkana FC is a football club from Kitwe in Zambia. They play their home games at Scriveners Stadium or Nkana Stadium. The club was founded under the name of Rokana United FC before it changed to Nkana Red Devils. In 1990, they were runners-up in the African Cup of Champions, the only Zambian team to ever reach the finals.

The Kitwe derby

The Kitwe derby between Power Dynamos and Nkana is one of the most fiercely contested matches in African soccer, perhaps only upstaged in competitiveness by the Soweto derby (Pirates and Chiefs) in South Africa.
