A show of force from the Coelacanths. In their second leg of the first round of the 2028 Olympic qualifiers, Comoros swept past Sudan with a staggering 13-0 victory.

The Comorian players left no chance for their Sudanese rivals in this encounter. By the final whistle, the scoreboard told a decisive story: 13-0. A sensational team performance that underlines the rapid rise of the Comoros women's national team.

Across both legs against Sudan, the Coelacanths scored 30 goals without conceding a single one. Ruthless attacking and rock-solid defending give coach Youssouf Abdallah plenty of confidence ahead of their continued qualifying journey toward Los Angeles 2028.

The next stop promises to be even tougher: Nigeria, ten-time African champions. It's a true top-level test for Comoros, who are dreaming of their first-ever Olympic appearance.
