Super Falcons Set for 2028 Olympics Qualifiers Draw
The Super Falcons of Nigeria have been drawn to face either Sudan or Comoros in the second round of the qualifiers for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics. The draw took place on April 29, 2026, at the headquarters of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in Cairo.
As one of Africa's top-ranked teams and the reigning Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) champions, the Super Falcons received a bye to the second round. The first leg of the qualifying matches is scheduled for October 5-13, 2026.
The winner of the matchup between Sudan and Comoros, set for June 1-9, 2026, will advance to face Nigeria. The Olympic qualifying series will feature 35 teams competing across five knockout rounds.
Nigeria's Olympic history has been mixed, with the Super Falcons missing three consecutive editions from 2012 to 2020, and their best Olympic performance being a quarter-final run in 2004.
