Malawi’s Temwa Chawinga has broken Sam Kerr’s record for the most goals in a single National Women’s Soccer League season with 19 goals.
According to a post obtained from Fabrizio Romano’s X handle on Sunday, Chaŵinga, who plays forward for the Kansas City Current of the National Women’s Soccer League and the Malawi national team, broke the record in her first season in the NWSL.
