The Football Association of Malawi (FAM) has called on football fans to buy tickets early and turn up in large numbers to support the Flames in their crucial CHAN playoff second-leg clash against Comoros on Saturday, March 8, 2025, at Bingu National Stadium.
FAM Marketing and Broadcasting Manager, Tulipo Mwenelupembe, emphasized the importance of a strong home crowd in pushing the national team to victory as they look to secure qualification for the next round. Malawi holds a 2-0 advantage from the first leg and needs a positive result to advance.
“We won the first leg 2-0, and now we have another crucial encounter this weekend to determine which team qualifies for the second round of the CHAN playoffs,” said Mwenelupembe. “As FAM, we are hopeful that our team will progress and face the winners between Egypt and South Africa, eventually securing a place in the finals set to be hosted by Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.”
