100: Tabitha Chawinga

Chawinga drops slightly from last year and just makes the 100, but continues to be one of the top strikers in Africa. The Malawi international has taken the Chinese Women’s Super League by storm in recent years and was once again one of the top scorers this year, scoring seven for Jiangsu Suning, helping them into the Championship play-offs where they suffered defeat to rivals Wuhan. For Malawi, Chawinga was once again the star of the show, scoring seven in the recent COSAFA championships as Malawi reached the semi-finals before defeat to South Africa. Her six-goal haul against Lesotho marked her down as the one of the top African goal scorers.
