15 April 2023
Juventus-Fiorentina will be played on Sunday, 16 April 2023 at 14:30 CEST. In the championship, the two teams met in the first phase on 30 October 2022 at Vinovo, where the Bianconere prevailed 2-0.
THE 4-3-3 DI MONTEMURRO
Juventus-Fiorentina was played on matchday 8, with coach Joe Montemurro fielding a 4-3-3 as follows: Peyraud-Magnin; Nilden, Gama, Salvai, Boattin; Caruso, Pedersen, Grosso; Bonansea, Girelli, Beerensteyn.
A DETERMINED JUVE
Juventus took to the field with a strong will to collect maximum points, intentions which were realised almost immediately as Lineth Beerensteyn struck within the first quarter. Julia Grosso playing in a well-placed ball for her Dutch teammate to run onto and finish with aplomb.
KEEPING UP THE INTENSITY
Juve's pace makes the difference. During the first half, the attacks on goal are incessant. Even though only one goal was scored by half-time, the team entered the tunnel knowing full-well that their single goal advantage did not reflect the dominance they had displayed on the pitch.
SUPER BB11
Barbara Bonansea's performance is simply perfect. Her goal, the result of great individual play, and sealed the three points in the middle of the second half, even though the team would carve out even more opportunities to increase the lead.
TWO GOALS, WOODWORK STRUCK TWICE
A goal in each half, a classic 2-0: the margin of victory could have been greater if the Lady hadn't been thwarted twice by the woodwork in both the early and latter stages of the game.
The first came from Bonansea who hit the crossbar with the scoreline at 0-0, before Sofia Cantore’s effort rebounded off the post three minutes from time.
