Vision-and-Language Navigation in Continuous Environments (VLN-CE) requires instruction-consistent planning and reliable execution under collision constraints. Yet many hierarchical approaches optimize the planner while keeping execution fixed. We introduce MATCH, a framework that jointly learns a language-conditioned planner and a goal-conditioned primitive-action executor. An execution-aware topological graph represents start-dependent execution options and integrates executor value estimates with realized outcome memory, enabling the planner to select execution requests and refine their targets through bounded continuous offsets. A transition-aware dense macro reward balances ordered progress along the reference route against execution residual, encouraging executable requests without substituting local success for instruction following. A staged curriculum culminates in synchronized on-policy updates, with the executor learning on planner-generated requests and the planner adapting its requests to the executor's current behavior. With 0.5B parameters, MATCH achieves state-of-the-art performance on the R2R-CE and RxR-CE benchmarks. Preliminary real-robot deployments further demonstrate its practical potential.
