International career
Sevdal's first appearances for the senior Faroe Islands women's national football team came in November 2006, at the UEFA Women's Euro 2009 qualifying series. At a preliminary round mini-tournament held in Strumica, Macedonia, Malena Josephsen's injury time goal in the Faroe Islands' first match was not enough, as they lost 2–1 to Wales. The team was eliminated after another defeat, 1–0 to Kazakhstan. In the final match the Faroe Islands beat hosts Macedonia 7–0. Sevdal started the first two matches and came on a substitute in the third.
In September 2013, with the Faroe Islands seven goals down to Scotland in a 2015 Women's World Cup qualifier at Tórsvøllur, Sevdal scored two late consolation goals.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24199185|title=Faroe Islands 2-7 Scotland|publisher=British Broadcasting Corporation|accessdate=17 November 2013|date=22 September 2013|first=Heather|last=Dewar}}
