History
The beginning
Comoros played its first ever international match against Mozambique and was played in Maputo, on 28 October 2006. The result was a 7–2 loss.
They had scheduled two matches against Mozambique in February 2014, for the 2014 African Women's Championship qualification, but it withdrew. Comoros advanced by walkover to the Second Round against South Africa on 23 May 2014 which they lost 13–0. They then had withdrawn from the return leg.[2]
In December 2016 two friendlies against Madagascar were lost 0–4 each.[3] In the 2019 COSAFA Women's Championship, in July, Comoros suffered their worst loss to South Africa, a match which ended 13–0.
At the 2020 COSAFA Women's Championship, the national team suffered a 4–2 loss to Eswatini and a 7–0 loss to South Africa, but managed a 1–1 draw against Angola, being its first result in its history.
