My hearty congratulations to the Mighty Be Forward Wanderers on the deserved and decisive win against a really impressive team, the Big Bullets in the Carlsberg Cup finale.
Congratulations to the supporters from both teams also for being lively and peaceful. I keenly followed the game on MBCTv. While the players on the field proved their skill and expertise with the ball, the large turn- out of their supporters in the stands stood tall with their exemplary behavior.
Despite their various affiliations, they chanted, cheered and shouted; that’s the unity we want if Malawi is to move forward. Well done also to the sponsors and all involved in such a colorful finale.
To the Vice President and all Big Bullets fans, I say sorry for the hurting loss. We all know how painful it is to lose in a cup final. My heart goes out to all of you. Losing is part of the game. If you never lose, you are never truly tested, and never forced to grow. Losing is only temporary and not all encompassing. You must simply study it, learn from it, and try hard not to lose the same way again.
My government will continue working with all the stakeholders that are complementing our efforts in sports development in the country.
May God bless us all
