Malawi have been runners-up in two Cosafa Castle Cup competitions, reaching the final for the first time in 2002 and the making the final again the following year. Although they were beaten in both legs of the final by both South Africa and Zimbabwe, the Flames have shown they are building a side to be reckoned with in the future. Malawi did beat past winners Angola and Zambia on their way to the final in 2002 and the next year disposed of Zambia again on penalties in the semifinals. Malawi have a strong record in regional competition, having won the East and Central African Senior Challenge Cup three times in 1978, 1979 and 1988. Now the landlocked country are part of Cosafa and have been eager participants in the Cosafa Castle Cup, playing in all previous editions. Malawi have also qualified for the African Nations Cup finals once before in Cote d’Ivoire in 1984 and were bronze medallists at the 1987 All-Africa Games in Nairobi.
