Former Orlando Pirates striker Chiukepo Msowoya has, through muscle injury, withdrawn from the Malawi Flames' squad to face Bafana Bafana in Saturday's friendly match set for Durban.
Msowoya's injury is a blow to the Flames who are short of options upfront.
Coach Kinnah Phiri told Radio 2 FM that Msowoya pulled his muscles while playing for his Blantyre side Escom United as they lost 3-1 to Moyale Barracks in Zomba on Saturday.
"I have since told the team manager to get in touch with Robin Ngalande [of BidVest Wits University] as a replacement for Msowoya," Kinnah told the radio.
Malawi, who leaves Monday for Durban, lost 3-0 in their last visit of South Africa also for a strength-building match in 2008.
