Women soccer team camp for TZ friendly

The Malawi National women football team has resumed camping at Chiwembe Technical Centre in Blantyre ahead of a friendly match against Tanzania in Dar es Salaam on November 7.

The team stopped camping on Tuesday last week after the match, initially scheduled for Lilongwes’ Civo Stadium on October 24, was cancelled because of elections in Tanzania.WOMEN-FOOTBALL
