Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>Malawi Women\u2019s National Football Team captain Tabitha Chawinga scored a brace as Wuhan Jianghan FC defeated Henan Jianye 4-0 in Chinese Women\u2019s League on Sunday.<\/p>\n

It was Tabitha\u2019s second consecutive brace this season after she also scored in a 3-0 victory over Beijing Phoenix last week. Tabitha is the leading goal scorer in the Chinese Women\u2019s League with five goals in four matches.<\/p>\n

Her young sister Temwa Chawinga was featured in defence but assisted with one of Tabitha\u2019s goals. Temwa has scored two goals in the league this season. In an interview from China, Tabitha said her focus was to defend the league this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am happy that we have started well and I hope we will continue to win games. It will not be easy to defend the league but we are prepared,\u201d Tabitha said.<\/p>\n

Last season, Tabitha won the golden boot award with nine goals, two goals ahead of Temwa. The Chawinga sisters helped Wuhan defend the league title. For Tabitha, it was her third league title in China in four years whereas Temwa has won it twice.<\/p>\n

National Women\u2019s Football Association Chairperson Suzgo Ngwira hailed Tabitha and Temwa for their impressive performances in China. \u201cWe are proud of the two players. They have good attitude. Tabitha and Temwa are good examples,\u201d Ngwira said. Wuhan are at the summit of the log table with 12 points from four matches this season.<\/p>\n
