Ivory Coast women’s national football team produced one of the most emphatic performances in recent women\u2019s international football with a 15-1 victory over Turks and Caicos Islands in Abidjan, Soccernet.ng reports<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Played at the Stade Olympique Alassane Ouattara on Sunday, the match quickly turned into a one-sided contest<\/a>. Ivory Coast were ahead within minutes and never eased off, scoring at will against a defence that struggled to cope with their movement, pace and finishing.<\/p>\n Ami Diallo set the tone early, scoring twice inside the opening 10 minutes. Priscille Kreto soon joined in, and by the 25th minute, the home side had already built a commanding lead. Their attacking play was direct, sharp and relentless, with midfield runners constantly arriving in dangerous areas.<\/p>\n The visitors did manage a brief response when Irener Moline pulled one back in the 28th minute, making it 5-1 at the time. But that proved only a short interruption. Ivory Coast responded immediately, scoring three more goals before the break to take a remarkable 9-1 lead into half-time.<\/p>\n The second half followed a similar pattern. Ines Akissi Konan completed her hat-trick, while goals continued to flow from across the team. By the time Ak\u00e9bi\u00e9 Abrogoa added the 15th goal deep into stoppage time, the result had already entered the record books as Ivory Coast\u2019s biggest-ever international win.<\/p>\n It was a performance that suggested a team growing in confidence and belief under head coach Reynald Pedros.<\/p>\n The scale of Ivory Coast\u2019s victory immediately drew comparisons with Nigeria’s Super Falcons and their own record-breaking win.<\/p>\n Back in 2019, Nigeria produced a 15-0 demolition of Niger at the WAFU Women\u2019s Cup, also in Abidjan. On that occasion, Uchenna Kanu scored five goals in a first-half masterclass as the Super Falcons ran riot.<\/p>\n That result remains the biggest-ever win by Nigeria and any African side. Like Ivory Coast\u2019s recent display, it was built on intensity from the first whistle, clinical finishing, and overwhelming attacking quality.<\/p>\n The parallels are clear. Both matches saw nine goals scored in the first half. Both revealed the gap that can exist between Africa\u2019s stronger sides and emerging teams. And both served as statements of intent ahead of major tournaments.<\/p>\n For Ivory Coast, matching that 15-goal mark carries symbolic weight. Nigeria\u2019s performance in 2019 came just before a FIFA Women\u2019s World Cup appearance and reinforced their status as Africa\u2019s leading force.<\/p>\n Now, Ivory Coast\u2019s own high-scoring victory arrives in the build-up to the next Women\u2019s Africa Cup of Nations, raising questions about whether they can translate such dominance into success on the continental stage.<\/p>\n![\"Soccer](\"https:\/\/soccernet.ng\/thumbor\/oTgohcQgy_3jimxmOdJvhoWAX-o=\/4640x3248\/smart\/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.soccernet.ng%2Fmain%2F2026%2F04%2Fimago20126236.jpg\")
