Football fans across Malawi woke up in disbelief today, rubbing their eyes and double-checking the scoreline just to be sure – yes, the Flames actually won a football match! And not just any match, but a 2-0 victory over Comoros in the 2025 African Nations Championship (CHAN) qualifiers.
This unexpected triumph has left Malawians confused, excited, and, quite frankly, a little suspicious. Some fans are already demanding a VAR review, convinced that there must have been a clerical error in the results. “Are we sure Comoros actually played? Or did they just send 11 mannequins onto the field?” questioned one baffled supporter.
And speaking of Comoros… how on earth did they lose to the Flames? This is the same Flames team that has spent years perfecting the art of conceding last-minute goals, misplacing passes, and making goalkeepers look like superheroes. Yet somehow, they managed to outplay a team that claims to be an actual footballing nation.
Comoros must be asking themselves some serious questions right now. Did their team bus get lost on the way to the stadium? Did their players mistake Bingu National Stadium for a tourist site and forget they had a match to play? Or perhaps they underestimated Malawi, thinking they were up against the same old Flames that usually fold like wet paper?
Whatever the case, Binwell Katinji and Zebron Kalima had no mercy, each finding the back of the net and leaving the Comoros goalkeeper looking like he had just seen a ghost. The Malawian crowd, unused to celebrating actual goals, nearly fainted from shock. “I have never seen the Flames score without my blood pressure rising first,” said one overwhelmed fan.
Even Comoros’ coach Mickidache seemed lost for words, admitting, “Malawi is a very good team.” Wait, what? Did we just hear that correctly? Is this the same Flames we’re talking about? Someone please check if he’s okay.
With this shocking win, the Flames are now just one draw away from advancing to the next round. The return leg is set for this Saturday, and Malawians are now left wondering: was this just a fluke, or are the Flames about to rewrite history?
One thing is certain – if Comoros loses again, their entire football federation might just resign out of embarrassment.
