Madagascar women's national football team

In 1985, almost no country in the world had a women's national football team,[2] including Madagascar, who did not play in a single FIFA-sanctioned match between 1950 and June 2012.[3] In 2005, Zambia was supposed to host the regional COSAFA Women's Championship, with ten countries agreeing to send teams, including South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, Seychelles, Mauritius, Madagascar, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, Lesotho and Swaziland.[4] Madagascar did not record a result from this competition.[3] In 2006, there was a FIFA recognised senior A team that had two training sessions a week though they had not played a single game between 2000 and 2006.[5] A FIFA recognised senior A team existed in 2009.[6] In 2010, the country did not have a team competing in the African Women's Championships during the preliminary rounds.[7] The country did not have a team competing at the 2011 All Africa Games.[8] In June 2012, the team was not ranked in the world by FIFA.[9]

In 2015 and 2016, the team played several matches, of which four were FIFA recognized. Two of those were 4–0 wins against Comoros.[10] The other games were in the Indian Ocean Games, where they were runner-up to Réunion. They made the final by winning a game against Mauritius.[11] The team entered the COSAFA Women's Championship three years in a row from 2017 to 2019. After losing all three games in the group stage in 2017, they drew one game in 2018 against Botswana and won one game in 2019 against Comoros.[12][13][14]

The following is a list of match results in the last 12 months, as well as any future matches that have been scheduled.
