They made Malawi proud on the football pitch, but what happened when the Scorchers returned home told a different story.
Malawi’s Scorchers players were spotted catching minibuses and walking home with their luggage after returning from Zimbabwe.
At Bakili Muluzi International Airport, some players boarded minibuses shortly after arriving, while those who landed at Kamuzu International Airport (KIA) in Lilongwe were seen catching minibuses at Kanengo.
Others were spotted around Machansi in Kawale, walking with their bags balanced on their heads.
The scenes unfolded shortly after the national women’s football team returned from Zimbabwe, where they had represented Malawi.
The players’ reliance on public transport has drawn attention to their circumstances away from the football pitch, where they navigate everyday life like other Malawians.
