The Elephants were held to a goalless draw, 0-0, by Cape Verde at the Félix Houphouët-Boigny Stadium, bringing their six-match winning streak in 2026 to a halt.

After a 2-0 victory in the first leg, the Ivory Coast women's team were aiming for their seventh consecutive win in 2026. But Cape Verde shut down every avenue, successfully stopping the Ivorian charge (0-0).

A tightly contested match with few clear scoring chances. The Elephants came up against a disciplined and well-organized Cape Verde defense. This friendly was part of both teams’ preparations for the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
