Inactivity during dates sanctioned by world football governing body, FIFA, for friendly matches could cost the Flames of Malawi, national team coach, Kinnah Phiri warned.
His sentiments come in the wake of revelations from Football Association of Malawi president, Walter Manda, that the Flames could go to next year without playing a game, citing lack of funding.
Malawi are in the same group as Ivory Coast, Guinea and Burkina Faso - teams that have lined up a number of friendly games - yet the Flames can consider to sit on their laurels. "It is too bad: it could cost us places at the World Cup and Africa Nations Cup. It is too dangerous for us, to say the truth. Let government and the corporate world do something," pleaded Phiri in an interview.
