Football Association of Malawi (FAM) President, Walter Nyamilandu has for the last minute told Malawian soccer fans that the game between Malawi and Togo has been cancelled.
On speaking to the country's local news paper, THE NATION SPORT, Nyamilandu said the game has been cancelled because up to now they have not recieved any official confirmation from their opponents and instead they will play Kuwait in Cairo, Egypt.
"As the situation stands now, we would rather play Kuwait other than hope for a friendly against either Togo and Zambia because up to now there is no confirmation.
"Togo's friendly was subject to their trip to Congo Brazaville where they were sheduled to camp which has not materialised. So, we could not take a gamble because Togo were not forthcoming and instead we will play Kuwait," he said.
The game between Togo was scheduled to be played on January 2 after Flames' return from Egypt where they are playing another friendly with Egypt today.
Kuwait is also in Egypt amid preparations of Asian Cup match against Austria which will take place on January 6.
Meanwhile Malawian soccer fans are worried since they were preparing to see another top class player, Emanuel Adebayor after they last watched Didier Drogba and Solomon Kalou to name a few.
