6:30 in the morning, Malawi.
We are in Mzuzu, the capital of the Northern Region.
I stayed up all night yesterday,
finished editing the previous video,
and it’s encoding right now.
But I have some really good news.
For a while now, some of you have been expressing concerns in the comments about the players’ diet,
because the players usually eat mostly carbohydrates,
like nsima and rice,
and since their meals are centered around things like that,
there have been a lot of comments asking whether they’re getting enough protein.
But this time, we have started a collaboration with Myprotein,
a brand specializing in protein products.
Since their headquarters are in the UK,
the process wasn’t exactly easy.
Fortunately, this week,
Myprotein and Chizumulu have teamed up,
and while other advertising is great too,
a collaboration that directly helps the team is even better.
Especially if you’ve watched our videos, you’ll know
that physicality is really important in this league.
But the problem is that, from the UK to Malawi, we can send the products, but
I asked around at several places,
and they said they had no idea how long it would take.
It will eventually arrive in Malawi,
but since there are so many products,
they said they could potentially be held up at customs for quite a while.
So I was wondering what to do,
and today is Friday,
but the next game has been pushed back to Tuesday,
so we have a little more time.
So I decided to just go to the UK today,
pick up the protein products that our players can consume right away,
and
make sure we can start using them from the next game.
There are just too many risks,
so I decided this was the only option.
Malawi and the UK are definitely not close,
it takes almost 20 hours,
which is almost
the same as going to Korea,
but Myprotein is also covering the cost of the flight.
So I’m going to make the trip with gratitude.
I’ll stay one night in the UK,
then come straight back to Malawi,
and after that I’ll go straight to Nkhata Bay,
take a boat, and head over to Chizumulu.
(Mzuzu → Lilongwe Airport, 6-hour journey)
(Why is this guy here all alone?)
I’ve never had such a terrifying experience in my life.
(After barely making the flight)
(Fell asleep from exhaustion)
I’m at Addis Ababa Airport,
and I’m waiting for my next flight to Manchester.
It’s only another nine hours from here,
and I’ll arrive in Manchester.
Koreans don’t need a visa to enter the UK,
so you can just enter,
but apparently something wasn’t registered
in the airport’s computer system,
so it kept giving me errors,
and while everyone else was getting on their flights,
I was still at the check-in counter.
Luckily, it was finally resolved.
It’s either Kenya Airways or Ethiopian Airlines.
But Kenya Airways
doesn’t operate flights to Korea,
so if you’re going from Korea to Malawi,
Ethiopian Airlines is basically the only option.
So I’ve practically devoted my life to Ethiopian Airlines at this point.
Trying to qualify for European competition with a Welsh second-division team.
(Connecting through Marseille)
I’m in Marseille, France right now,
and Ethiopian Airlines has a lot of routes like this,
where they get off the people who are getting off here like a bus,
then pick up more passengers,
and continue on to Manchester.
Fast forward! It’s the next day, and I’m at a hotel in front of Manchester Airport.
The protein I needed
arrived safely in these boxes,
and I packed them into this suitcase.
Now I’m heading straight back to Malawi.
After being in Malawi,
the internet here is seriously fast.
So I quickly uploaded some things
that I’d been wanting to upload for a while,
and now I’m heading back to Malawi with excitement.
The person who loves Malawi the MOST~~~~~ in the world.
(On the way back, I went via Geneva and Addis Ababa)
Back in Malawi (she’s not here)
Heading straight to Nkhata Bay.
Still, since I haven’t had internet for a while,
I took the opportunity to organize my thoughts,
and worked a bit while transferring between flights.
(Ilala ferry ticket office)
One deck ticket to Chizumulu, please.
24,000 kwacha (about 10,000 won)
(Hired someone to carry one of my bags and come along)
Still, I took comfort in the fact that it’s better than the other boats.
It took 30 minutes to get this far.
(Pushing my way up)
Wow, this is fucking exhausting,
but I managed to make my way up,
and down below it’s basically hell on earth.
It’s at least a little more peaceful once you come up here.
It’s about 7 p.m. now,
and according to what I heard earlier, they’re leaving around 10.
So we’ll probably arrive in Chizumulu around
maybe 2 a.m.
Earlier, I saw some Ekwendeni FC players
getting on the boat too. (Tomorrow’s opponents)
So it looks like we’ll arrive in Chizumulu together.
I had an in-flight meal around 1 p.m.,
and haven’t eaten anything since,
so I’m going to get some food here.
Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever filmed myself eating on the Ilala,
so
I’ll give you a little tour.
First, let’s start with the bathroom.
The bathroom upstairs is at least relatively clean,
and they’ve even installed an air freshener up here.
(Chicken and rice. A bit expensive because it’s on the boat, about 7,000 won)
(It tastes good)
Four hours on the boat — skip~
(Arrived in Chizumulu)
2:30 a.m. — arrived in Chizumulu.
Since it’s basically straight into the match now and things are going to get hectic,
I’m going to close my eyes for a bit
and get back up.
(Currently at the dorm, me) That thing is completely filled out + [unreadable] notebook.
(I had to write everything by hand during the last away game, and it was exhausting)
Ohhh, Chichewa!
Tatokoza. (Thank you)
(Since this season we have to record everything we do too, it’s a huge pain)
(Had about an hour-long meeting about today’s game and next week’s schedule)
(Taking out the Myprotein products I brought from the UK)
This is Myprotein’s Origin Pre-Workout.
It’s mainly taken before exercise,
but we’re going to give it to the players before matches.
This one is focused on protein.
(Tasting Impact Whey Protein Milkshake)
The taste is~
Let me savor it.
Make one separately for Mackson.
I’m going to drink all of this.
This is fucking amazing.
An absolutely certain head shake.
You don’t even have to act.
I’m not acting. This is incredible.
(Mackson Thundu)
This is good. The players are going to love this too.
(Media staff, Moster)
Can I add more water to this and drink it?
Robert adapts quickly.
I can’t resist.
Mcfallen: Remember, this is for the players, not for the coaches.
Yeah, I’ll keep it with me and hand it out on match day.
If I keep this at home, it’ll be a disaster.
I might end up eating it all without even realizing it.
(Moster leaves not a single bit of powder behind)
This will be a really good source of motivation for the players.
The players here can’t consume large amounts of protein,
so this protein supplement will be a big help to them.
I think we need to get ready for the match right away.
First, I’ll eat with the players,
then we’ll go watch today’s 3 p.m. season opener against Ekwendeni FC.
What’s today’s menu?
The answer: Chizumulu-style duck.
Everyone’s enjoying lunch.
Wow.
It’s duck today,
so let’s eat well.
There aren’t that many places across Malawi
where you can eat duck,
and this is one of them.
I learned another Chichewa sentence on the way here yesterday. (Showing off)
(Nsima gets chewier and tastes better when you roll it around like this)
It’s great with a vegetable called mpiru.
The duck is good too.
There are a lot of side dishes here today too.
That’s enough.
Mcfallen: Ah, it’s a bit greasy.
Mackson: Kimchi kimbap.
We had a nice, filling meal,
and now there are
about three hours until kickoff.
The thing we’re using to surround the pitch,
I called it a bag before,
but I think “sack” is a more accurate description.
Hello!
(The Chizumulu kids are so innocent and cute)
I wanted to change everything as soon as I arrived,
but things don’t really go as I want them to.
I tried to find sacks in Mzuzu,
but it was difficult.
I had no idea
finding large sacks could be this difficult.
Even after asking around everywhere,
either the quality wasn't what we wanted or the size didn't fit, so we ended up failing to find what we needed.
So there are still some places where the quality isn't very good.
Next week, I’m going with Mcfallen
to look for some players on loan for us,
and we’re going to
Blantyre, the economic capital of Malawi.
So we’ll buy some there
and reinforce the setup.
The line is made from what you might call the corn husks, I guess?
It’s made from what’s left after removing the corn kernels,
and as for the net,
I paid a whopping 200,000 won for it here,
and now we have a really good net.
Oh.
They’re eating this.
Maybe because after we installed it last time,
they ate all of it.
(Allan’s locker-room talk. Captain Mantoh is currently injured)
(Elchoise ankle supports again today)
Thank you, Myprotein.
(Making Origin Pre-Workout to drink before the match)
(Choosing watermelon over pear)
Francis, how is it?
Very delicious.
It smells good too.
Laban feeling Myprotein with his whole body.
It's a good day for football, and I'm hoping we can pick up another three points today.
We only have Francis Phiri and Laban Longwe at left-back,
and since Laban showed good form in training, he’s starting today.
Our striker options are Emmanuel Mkandawire and our usual starter,
so I wanted to see what Emmanuel could show us today.
This really isn’t a simple thing.
Having an opportunity to work with companies like these,
companies that believe in you,
isn’t something easy.
When you see things like this happening around us,
it gives us the motivation to keep working even harder.
We can’t let the people who believe in you
be disappointed.
All we can do is show that we’re giving our best.
In the end, results are what matter.
If we get good results,
people and companies will continue to support us.
That’s football. Football is ultimately about results.
No matter what anyone says, results are incredibly important.
It’s sad, but I think there’s some truth to that.
But I think how you reach that goal is important too.
We just have to do our best given our current situation.
This isn’t our first season,
so it’s certain that we need to improve from last season.
(Pre-match warm-up begins)
We’ve had Myprotein’s Origin Pre-Workout,
and we’re getting ready for today’s match.
If you take this before exercising,
it maximizes your workout performance.
It contains ingredients such as caffeine and L-arginine,
as well as beta-alanine,
so it gives you a really good boost before exercising.
And since it comes in refreshing pear and watermelon flavors that are great for summer,
it’s really easy to just drink before exercising.
From now on, our players will also
take it before
every match this season.
As for the Impact Whey Protein Milkshake,
it’s a great product
that you can have anytime.
This is actually the first time I’ve tried a protein powder like this,
and it’s not heavy at all.
Our players will also be able to have it before training.
In simple terms,
it’s concentrated whey protein
and milk protein derived from cows,
with high protein, low fat, and no sugar at all,
so it’s really good for your health
while still tasting great.
In Korea, vanilla ice cream,
chocolate milk,
and cookie crumble flavors
are scheduled to be released.
This time, Myprotein Korea
is running its biggest sale campaign of the year
to celebrate Liberation Day on August 15.
The sale runs from today, August 14, until 1 a.m. on August 16,
with discounts of up to 81.5%,
and the 8/15 Liberation Day special is currently underway.
There are additional discounts as well,
so with Chizumulu,
it looks like the game will start at 3 as scheduled.
This season, all of our home games
will simply start at 3 p.m.,
so we’ve decided to standardize them all that way.
We’re preparing accordingly as well.
Actually, last season they were in the relegation zone,
and they should have been relegated to the fourth division.
But when other teams were unable to participate because of financial problems,
they got another chance
to participate through sheer luck.
Last season, in the Ekwendeni area, there were Ekwendeni 5
and Ekwendeni Hard Knockers.
Of those teams, Ekwendeni Hard Knockers
couldn’t participate this season due to financial problems.
So I know some of the players
who used to play there as well.
So I don’t think we can underestimate them too much.
Especially since we’ve only scored one goal in our last three games,
I’m hoping we can get a nice, convincing goal today.
(Movert filmed some of the preparations for the match)
(The opposing Ekwendeni FC players)
(Checking each team’s squad list before the match)
10
(Match begins)
Chizumulu United against Ekwendeni FC like this.
Unlike on the mainland, Chizumulu is definitely hot.
I’ve been sweating a bit myself
while getting ready for the match,
and the Ekwendeni players don’t look particularly impressive physically.
In terms of their ball control and their familiarity with the pitch,
we have a bit more of an advantage,
so I think we might get a good result today.
I couldn’t watch the only game in our last three where we scored,
the Lifrali game,
so I honestly can’t remember the last time I saw us score.
(The opening was pretty uneventful)
Difference of 38,575,791 sheets.
Another person captivated by Joseph’s clever dummy play today.
(Mcfallen is already telling the bench players to warm up)
It’s only the 23rd minute of the first half,
and basically nothing has happened so far.
Neither team has had a single chance.
Harry Laban.
He’s already getting him ready from around the 20th minute.
(Hydration break)
Laban is getting ready to come on immediately.
(Emmanuel had to come off earlier than expected)
(Mayamiko’s good delivery)
He got that wrong at the end.
(Another attack starting from Mayamiko)
This is unbelievable.
Ever since Laban came on,
we’ve completely taken control of the game.
Ekwendeni can’t even get forward at all,
so I think if we keep pounding them,
something will come from it.
The ball is coming out.
(Great pressure from Dickies)
If this were a FIFA game,
that would be a perfect scoring chance.
That’s the third one we’ve missed.
Enough with the match-engine bullshit.
(We kept piling on the attacks)
(But it ended 0-0 at halftime)
The opposing coach said something and got booked.
After missing three big chances,
we ended the first half 0-0.
Ekwendeni really weren’t threatening at all.
It’s just a matter of whether we score or not.
It feels like the goals could suddenly come pouring in,
but we’re just missing that one thing. Just one thing.
(Whenever we come here, it seems like this happens)
(Later, we found out there had been a funeral nearby)
(Mcfallen explaining the attacking tactics)
Under the blazing sun in Chizumulu,
we’re getting ready to start the second half.
Let’s go~
Second half begins @Chizumulu.
With a lot of spectators coming in too,
(A refreshing save)
(Ekwendeni awarded the ball)
A disciplinary decision for the earlier foul.
It’s my first time seeing a foul like that in Malawi.
(Good link-up play from No. 7)
Oof.
(Another two substitutions)
Expert Kamanga, our captain from last season,
and Charles Deya came on
to replace Benjamin.
Dickies is looking good.
(68th minute — slowly getting going)
(A header from a long throw finally gives Chizumulu the lead)
The second half has been following pretty much the same pattern.
It’s a relief that things are finally starting to open up.
(Moster cam)
(Midfielder Steve Phiri’s first goal of the season)
Seriously, it’s Myprotein again.
(No. 7’s good run)
Joseph, nice.
He’s up against an opposing attacker who’s almost a whole head taller than him,
but he’s not losing the physical battle at all.
The foul was against us, though.
(It’s already stoppage time)
I thought it was going to end like this,
but Banya cut inside perfectly,
and going all the way to the UK to bring back the protein
may or may not have made a huge difference,
but as the club chairman,
I’m proud to think that I was able to contribute even a little.
(Moster cam)
(Movert gets two assists today — throw-in = corner kick)
(Movert is excited and about to do something after getting two assists)
(The match ends 2-0, with Chizumulu winning)
Oh boy.
Mcfallen doesn’t look happy.
I wasn’t impressed with today’s game.
I didn’t like the way we played today.
(They say they’re coming to Malawi for a month)
(Chizumulu kid)
Who should we give Man of the Match to?
I don’t know today. You guys decide.
I choose Banya, who scored his first goal of the season.
He worked hard today.
(Moster worked his ass off today)
Today’s Deépo Man of the Match award winner: Banya.
You worked really hard today,
and things only really came together for us in the second half,
so is there anything you'd like to say?
Anything you’d like to say as a final message?
There have been a lot of difficult moments, but we'll keep working hard under the coaches.
Seeing our current position in the table motivates us.
I want us to come together as one team and move toward promotion.
(With this win, we are now 3rd in the league with 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss, two points behind 1st place)
Thank you to all the fans in Malawi and Korea for your support.
Please continue to send us lots of support and strength.
Considering how dominant we were,
we didn't manage to make the scoreline much bigger,
so I think I can fully understand Mcfallen's concerns as well.
I think I have to thank Mcfallen again too.
I’ll pay last month’s salaries and today’s winning bonuses,
and I think that’ll wrap up the day.
(We heard that one of the team’s teeth got knocked out)
(It happened during the match, and we couldn’t even find the tooth)
Thank you all for giving your best today.
And to Dickies, who scored the July Goal of the Month,
(Handing out July salaries and bonuses one by one)
(One tooth missing, but still smiling)
I’ll see what I can do to help.
I finished everything up and came back into my room after getting some rest.
Today, we put in a dominant performance against our opponents,
and won 2-0,
so I think it was a really good day.
But the next away game is coming up soon.
Today is Tuesday,
and we’re away on Sunday.
And one of our longest away trips, to Euthini,
is coming up this week — it'll take around 10 hours to get there.
So we have to leave on Saturday.
That means I only have
about three days to rest.
So I’ll spend that time here editing
and taking care of some other things,
while staying in Chizumulu,
and I’ll prepare for the next game with the team as well.
To all the subscribers of our Changbakgol channel
who always show us so much interest,
thank you so much.
We can do all of this because of you.
I’m truly grateful,
and we’ll continue to show you good things,
so please continue to support us.
Thank you sincerely
for watching today’s video.
Thank you.

Chairman's UK Protein Run + Chizumulu United vs Ekwendeni FC — Away Day Vlog

2026-08-14 · Changbakgol

Watch on YouTube

The Chizumulu United chairman flies to the UK and back in under two days to collect a new Myprotein partnership shipment for the squad, then joins the team on Chizumulu Island for a 2-0 win over Ekwendeni FC.

View Summary

The chairman makes a whirlwind round trip to the UK — via Addis Ababa, Manchester, and Marseille — to personally collect the club's first Myprotein shipment after learning it could be held up in Malawian customs for weeks. After a long ferry crossing back to Chizumulu Island, the video moves into matchday: the squad tries the new supplements, prepares for their league fixture against Ekwendeni FC, and grind out a goalless first half before two second-half goals — including a first senior goal for Steve Phiri — secure a 2-0 win. It closes with the postgame Man of the Match presentation and a look ahead to a long away trip to Euthini.
