Super Falcons Target Olympic Qualification Against Comoros

Nigeria's Super Falcons are set to secure a place in the third round of the African qualification series for the 2028 Olympics Women's Football Tournament when they face the Comoros senior women's national team for the second time in four days. The Super Falcons won the first match 2-0, with goals from defender Michelle Alozie and forward Uchenna Kanu.

This victory positions them favorably as they pursue their second consecutive Olympic appearance, following their participation in the Paris 2024 Games. Due to Comoros' lack of a CAF-approved venue for international matches, Nigeria enjoys home advantage for both fixtures at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne-Remo.

Interim Head Coach Augustine Eguavoen deployed Chiamaka Nnadozie in goal during the first match, supported by a defensive lineup including Glory Ogbonna and Michelle Alozie. The coaching staff may consider changes for the upcoming match, including the potential debut of Christiana Uzoma in goal.

The third-round fixture against Morocco is scheduled for March 2027.
