Press Room | Comments after Fiorentina-Juventus Women

The Fiorentina-Juventus women's match at Viola Park on Monday night resulted in a 2-1 victory for the hosts. Coach Isaac Guerrero and captain Martina Rosucci provided their thoughts following the Serie A clash. Guerrero mentioned the team's recent return from a Champions League match in Vienna, noting that a brief recovery period made the subsequent fixtures challenging.

He highlighted the need for improvement in ball control, exploiting spaces, and maintaining continuity in build-up play. Defensively, the team matched their Vienna performance, emphasizing the importance of recovering from a poor run of league results and capitalizing on their Champions League triumph. Guerrero particularly appreciated the team's solidarity, with players stepping up to fill gaps and make extra runs.

Rosucci, celebrating her 200th appearance, spoke about the significance of the milestone across a decade-long career, two cruciate ligament injuries, and the formation of lasting friendships within the Juventus dressing room. For her, this match was a crucial moment after three consecutive losses, with the win symbolizing a return to winning ways.

She dedicated the achievement to her late grandmother, Tiziana, whom she would have loved to see score a goal.
