The Black Queens and Les Elephants played out an electrifying 3-3 draw in a friendly match in Abidjan. Despite dominating possession, the Queens struggled to create clear-cut chances early on.

Doris Boaduwaa's early shot tested the goalkeeper, but the keeper's quick reflexes denied the opening goal. The Queens eventually capitalized on opportunities, with Sherifatu Sumaila, Chantelle, and a defensive error gifting them a 3-0 lead.

However, the hosts staged a remarkable comeback, exploiting defensive lapses to level the score at 3-3. Despite the draw, Coach Kim Lars Björkegren sees valuable lessons to build on ahead of the second leg on Tuesday.
