GIST: We lived to fight on sept. 7th 2013 Malawi vs Nigeria {via @234VIBES}

Nelson Mandela Challenge: South - Nigeria - Nigeria celebrate Uceh Nwofor goal



When Nigeria scored in the 89th minute on June 9, 2012, through Reuben Gabriel, it was going to be smooth sailing until John Banda capitalized on a mistake by Vincent Enyeama to equalize in the 92nd minute and ensure that the Flames would live to fight another day.
That day has arrived for the Malawians but so much has changed from that evening in Blantyre. Especially for the team from Malawi on the coaching front where a certain Tom Saintfiet is now in charge.
There has been so much mud slinging from both parties in the last few weeks preceding this encounter that fans of both teams will be ready for an explosive match.
The Super Eagles went on from that draw to become African champions and are favoured to qualify for the last round of African qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup scheduled for Brazil.

  • Malawi have never qualified for the World Cup finals.
