The World Cup in Australia and New Zealand had most of the sport’s top talent on display and it made for a wonderful tournament. One very noticeable absentee in July and August, however, was Tabitha Chawinga, the top scorer in last season’s Serie A Femminile with 23 goals for Internazionale and now with Paris Saint-Germain.
The 27-year-old, from Malawi, who did not qualify for the World Cup, is now busy reminding people of her talent and scored PSG’s only goal in a highly competitive Champions League qualifier draw against Manchester United last Tuesday. The second leg is in Paris on Wednesday night.
