And so the regular season in Serie A closed with a win for Juventus Women, who beat Napoli Femminile 4-1 in Biella in their final match before the league splits in two.
Goals from Cristiana Girelli, Julia Grosso and a Lindsey Thomas brace set the Bianconere on their way to picking up three more points, before a late Marija Banusic penalty spoiled their clean sheet.
We’ve taken a look at some of the interesting statistics to emerge from the game.
SUPER SIX | Juventus are unbeaten in their last six home games, picking up five wins and a draw. In that time they have conceded just four goals, as many as seven fewer as they had in their previous six games.
PERFECT RECORD | Juventus maintain a 100% winning record against Napoli after six games against the Partenopee. Of the sides the Bianconere have beaten 100% of the time, they have only faced Hellas Verona (eight) and Pink Bari (seven) more times.
ETERNAL | Having opened the scoring and assisting Lindsey Thomas’ first goal on Sunday, Cristiana Girelli has scored and assisted in more matches than anybody else in the last four Serie A seasons, doing so on nine occasions and at least three times more than anybody else.
GOLDEN GROSSO | Since the beginning of last season, Julia Grosso is the youngest player to have had a hand in 15 or more Serie A goals (16, with eight goals and eight assists).
MIDFIELD MASTERS | Julia Grosso (eight goals and eight assists) and Arianna Caruso (10 goals and 13 assists) are the only two midfielders to have managed at least eight goals and assists since the beginning of the last Serie A season.
