Malawi has reached the final of the Women's Africa Cup of Nations after a decisive 3-1 victory against Algeria on Wednesday. The match was defined by the performance of sisters Tabitha and Temwa Chawinga, who both scored to lead their team to victory. This win marks a significant milestone for Malawi, which has been described as a 'giant-killing' run throughout the tournament.

Following this result, Malawi is set to compete against Cameroon for the title. Cameroon earned their place in the final after a closely contested match against the tournament hosts, Morocco. That semi-final concluded in a penalty shootout, allowing Cameroon to advance. The upcoming final will determine the tournament champion, with Malawi looking to continue their momentum against a Cameroon side that proved resilient under the pressure of a host-nation crowd.
