Super Falcons Draw Comoros Following Historic 30-0 Aggregate Demolition of Sudan
The Super Falcons will face Comoros in the second round of the 2028 Olympic qualifiers this October after the East African side recorded a stunning 30-0 aggregate victory over Sudan.
The Nigeria senior women's football team, the Super Falcons, have discovered their formal opponents for the upcoming second round of the 2028 Olympic Games qualifiers after the women's national team of Comoros executed an utterly unprecedented continental demolition of Sudan. The sub-regional side sent shockwaves through the African women's football landscape by recording a staggering 30-0 aggregate victory over their Sudanese counterparts across two legs, opening their qualifying campaign with a ruthless 17-0 victory in the first leg before sealing the historic tie with a similarly dominant 13-0 victory in the reverse fixture. The jaw-dropping scoring streak has instantly repositioned Comoros as a highly intriguing wild-card competitor on the continent, setting up a fascinating David-and-Goliath tactical battle against Nigeria this coming October.
Despite Comoros' record-breaking goal haul, continental sports analysts emphasize that the Super Falcons present an entirely different level of physical and tactical sophistication compared to the heavily depleted Sudanese defense. As record-holding eleven-time African champions, the Nigerian side boasts a star-studded squad featuring elite world-class talents like Asisat Oshoala and Rasheedat Ajibade, who routinely compete at the highest levels of European club football. The technical department of the Nigeria Football Federation has reportedly commenced early logistics and scouting operations for the October double-header, determined to ensure the Super Falcons avoid any trace of complacency against an ultra-confident Comoros side that is eager to pull off the ultimate upset in women's football.
