The Football Association of Malawi, FAM has assured their national team, Flames players of a ‘Special bonus’ if they beat the Super Eagles in the last group match scheduled for the U.J. Esuene Stadium in Calabar on September 7.

FAM president, Walter Nyamilandu Manda told the media in Malawai that the bonus is to boost the players to ‘die a little and work extra hard’ for the nation against the Super Eagles.

“We are making all efforts to ensure that our preparations for the Nigeria game should go on smoothly. The association also thought it wise to give the players a special bonus if they happen to beat Nigeria.

“We are also making arrangements that will help our players to travel safely and also not to be affected from any tricks that the hosting country may apply before the clash. Starting from our flight we want everything to go on smoothly.

“If anything, we want to make a special arrangement whereby the team should arrive in Calabar at least 24 hours before the game. We are also going to send an advanced team to make sure that all the arrangements should be perfected before the team departs for the game,” Nyamilandu was quoted to have said by an online Malawian publication.

Meanwhile the Flames Belgian-born handler, Tom Saintfiet who named a 21-man squad to battle the Eagles is still exuding confidence that his side could upset the Stephen Keshi-tutored side in Calabar when both sides meet in the crucial qualifier but quickly added that he is not under-estimating the Eagles.
