Juventus Women’s First Team just punched their ticket to the Serie A Women’s Cup final, taking down a seriously tough Inter squad 1-0 in Biella. This wasn’t just another win; it was a statement game that highlighted the absolute winning mentality running through the core of this team.
Salvai Lays Out the Winning Blueprint
After the final whistle, veteran Cecilia Salvai didn’t mince words about what drives this team. “We really wanted this, it’s part of our DNA,” she said, making it crystal clear that Juventus isn’t just playing for fun, they’re playing to dominate. “Juve’s DNA is to win everything we can.” That’s a philosophy you can get behind! Salvai also talked about the mission to bring the new players into that winning circle, noting they’ve “already taken it on board very well.” You gotta love that leadership. She even gave a shoutout to Ana Capeta, saying they wanted to reach the final for her and will “try to win a trophy for her.” Talk about playing for something bigger than yourself! Salvai knows a final is “another match to play and an opportunity for everyone,” especially those looking for their first career trophy. She’s already hyped, declaring, “I can’t wait to get out there.”
Objectives Met, More To Come
Coach Isaac Guerrero was quick to praise his squad, recognizing the immense challenge they faced. Inter boasts one of the best attacks in the league, something Salvai acknowledged, saying, “we were very wary of their threat.” That’s why the team “raised our level of concentration against each of them.” They showed incredible resilience, soaking up pressure and staying compact when they had to suffer, proving the team’s “great solidity, not just the defence.” Guerrero reflected on the season’s progression, noting the team’s first objective was simply “to become a team,” which these girls nailed from day one. Then came the second big goal, securing a spot in the Women’s Champions League League Phase, which they achieved by pouring “all their energy” into it. This cup final? That’s the third major objective they’ve fought for, and Guerrero summed it up perfectly: “They really deserve my congratulations.”
So, the stage is set for the Serie A Women’s Cup final. With their DNA built for winning and a roster that’s clearly bought into the philosophy, you know Juventus is going into that match with fire in their eyes. They’ve earned this shot, and every player on that squad will be battling for that trophy. Don’t blink, because this team is coming for it all.
