Update: The Malawi women's national football team, the Scorchers, will face Australia's Matildas in the FIFA Series 2026 in Kenya without key attackers Tabitha and Temwa Chawinga, according to Matildas.com.au. Temwa is returning from a season-ending injury with her club, the Kansas City Current, while Tabitha is not included in the squad for the upcoming series.
