Super Falcons Triumph Over Comoros in Olympic Qualifier
Nigeria’s Super Falcons defeated Comoros 2-0 in the first leg of their second-round qualifying match for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games on October 9 at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, Ogun State. The victory was secured through second-half goals from Michelle Alozie in the 48th minute and Uchenna Kanu in the 60th minute.
Alozie scored after receiving a headed pass from Gift Monday, while Kanu converted a corner delivered by Jennifer Echegini. Despite dominating possession and creating several opportunities in the first half, the Super Falcons were unable to score until the second half, where they increased their pressure and capitalized on their chances.
The win provides Nigeria with a two-goal advantage heading into the return leg scheduled for Tuesday, October 13, at the same venue.
