Temwa ruled out of Angola match due to injury

Malawi National Women's football team will not have their striker, Temwa Chawinga, during their match against Angola in a bid for Women's African Cup of Nations qualification as she is ruled out because of an injury.

Chawinga limped out of the game which her team Kansas City Current lost to Houston Dash Women in the National Women's Soccer league in USA at 28 minutes after suffering an injury on her upper right leg.

Meanwhile, she has expressed her sadness to miss the game. "I'm heartbroken I will not get to represent my country Malawi with national team this coming week due to my injury."

"I am currently working with my team doctors and coaches at KC Current to get back on the field taking it day at a time. Sending love to my Malawi team and wishing you the best of luck.
Thank you for your support during this time," she wrote.

A win for Malawi on aggregate will book a place at the WAFCON finals of 2026 in Angola.
