MATCH REPORT
The match got off to a fantastic start in the fog of St. Polten, in a crucial match for Juventus Women's Champions League campaign: after just six minutes the Bianconere found a breakthrough, scoring from a corner, with Vangsgaard's strike coming from a scramble in the six-yard box.
The early goal allowed the Bianconere to play more calmly as they sought a second goal, and in the 15th minute a great opportunity fell to Tatiana Pinto in the form of a header, but the Austrian goalkeeper responded with a superb save. Five minutes later, Vangsgaard almost scored a second - perfectly set up by some excellent play and a cross from Beccari, which freed the Dane for a confident shot which hit the crossbar.
In the 24th minute, Juventus Women were once again on the verge of making it 2-0: a free kick was pounced on by Girelli, who flicked it into the far post, once again testing the Austrian keeper. The Bianconere dominated the first half hour, with Krumbiegel unleashing a left-footed shot from the edge of the box in the 33rd minute, also coming close to scoring.
The second goal came just before half-time, scored by Girelli from the spot following a handball by the Austrian defence following a challenge with Vangsgaard.
The number 10 scored her second at the start of the second half, once again from 11 meters, in a match that at 3-0 after an hour of play was easy for Mister Canzi's team.
Tatiana Pinto then scored the fourth goal, cleverly unleashing a powerful shot from Thomas' pass and capitalizing on Girelli's dummy, which left the Portuguese player with a strike from the edge of the box in the 66th minute. A tried-and-true play for the Bianconere, who took advantage of it in the 81st minute to make the score 5-0 with Krumbiegel, again from a cross from the right and again after Girelli's dummy.
In the final minutes, the Juventus number 10 just missed out on a hat-trick, missing the chance to score again with a final big chance one-on-one with the opposing goalkeeper.
The match was dominated from start to finish by Juventus Women, ending 5-0.
