This article lists the results and fixtures for the Ivory Coast women's national football team.
Nicknamed "Les Éléphantes" or "Les Éléphants Dames," a designation derived from the men's national team "Les Éléphants," the Ivory Coast women's national football team represents the country in international women's association football. The team is governed by the Ivorian Football Federation and competes under the Confederation of African Football (CAF), as well as in regional competitions organized by the West African Football Union (WAFU), and global tournaments sanctioned by FIFA. [1]
Established in the late 1980s, the team made history as the first African women's national team to participate in an international match when they competed in the 1988 FIFA Women's Invitation Tournament. [2] Their debut took place on 1 June 1988 against the Netherlands, ending in a 3–0 defeat. The team went on to lose its next two matches, scoring just one goal and conceding 17. Ivory Coast recorded its first official victory 19 years later, defeating Senegal 2–0 in the qualification round for the 2008 African Women's Championship. Their largest official win came in 2021 with an emphatic 11–0 triumph over Niger. [3] Conversely, their heaviest defeat occurred in 2015 when they lost 10–0 to Germany. [4]
