Bianconere beat Fiorentina once more
Bianconere beat Fiorentina once more Juventus Women have beaten Fiorentina and earned a crucial three points in the final stretch of the Women's Serie A season. Goals from Thomas in the first half and Salvai in the second half secured the 2-1 victory, with Fiorentina temporarily leveling in the middle. MATCH REPORT Fiorentina threatened early on with a persistent drive from Janogy, who found Omarsdottir in the box.
Her header was well-aimed, but Rusek's reflexes proved decisive, denying the home side the lead. Juventus responded quickly, and in the 13th minute they took the lead: a splendid move by Vangsgaard on the left, who broke free of her marker and delivered a precise cross to the far post. Thomas then made a perfectly timed run and headed home to make it 0-1.
Canzi's team continued to push forward with conviction, coming close to doubling the lead on several occasions. First, Carbonell made a well-timed run, but she missed the target by a matter of centimetres. Shortly after, Schatzer attempted a well-aimed shot from the edge of the box, which was deflected out for a corner by the home goalkeeper.
Salvai came very close to scoring from the corner, but couldn't find the winner at the far post. However, just as Juventus were at their best, Fiorentina equalized: in the 39th minute, Woldvik crossed into the penalty area for Omarsdottir to level the score. In first-half stoppage time, Juventus almost regained the lead with Capeta's header, but Janogy cleared it off the goal line.
The score remained 1-1 at half time. At the start of the second half, Rusek needed to pull off a remarkable save to keep the game level, instinctively responding to a close-range shot from Janogy. The Viola continued to push forward and threatened again from a corner, leading to Catena firing over.
