Malawi’s President Lazarus Chakwera will gift each footballer who will play for the national team’s match against Senegal on Tuesday.
He tweeted about his 1m Malawian kwacha ($1,200; £890) reward to players and 500,000 kwacha for those on the bench:
Malawi sit a point behind Guinea and Senegal, who both have four points, in their group.
They beat Zimbabwe 2-1 in their match last week.
Victory over Senegal on Tuesday will see them through to the knock-out stage.
