Gaba hands Malawi win over South Sudan in AFCON qualifiers
Malawi national football team, the Flames, began their 2021 Africa Cup of Nations group campaign with a narrow 1-0 victory at home against South Sudan at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre on Wednesday.
The Flames winner in
their Group B match came from Orlando Pirates forward Gabadinho Mhango in the 67th minute.
The dimunitive Mhango picked up a pass from Gerald Phiri Jr before beating two defenders inside the area and then firing in a fierce shot that South Sudan keeper Majak Mawith was unable to hold as the ball spilled into the net.
It was however a difficult game for Malawi as they struggled to find any fluidity early in the game while South Sudan will draw some positives from the match as they twice were denied by the woodwork.
The two other countries in Group B Burkina Faso and Uganda were meeting later on at the Stade 4 Aout on Ouagadougou city.

Was the pass from Phiri? I saw like it was a kick from Goal keeper straight to Gaba and he scored after some runs. Eish!!!!!
Congrats to Flame but need to work more and score more goals when playing home.All the best for the coming games
Good start as we got all 3points no matter the goal margin
South Sudan would easily have won the match. Malawians live in fools paradise believing we are a good team
We need to start scoring as many goals as possible. Let us restore our lost glory in displaying classic football. Emulate the Malawi QUEENS’ examples. Malawians are always winners, keep it up FRAMES!!!! You are second to none.
