Three goals in five minutes, from being two goals down to victory. Juventus Women completed an extraordinary comeback on the field of Breda, beating Inter Women after being down 2-0 from the 74th minute. Rosucci, the black and white captain, spoke about the value of that success to the club’s official channels.
“I am really happy and proud of my teammates and the whole team because it wasn’t easy. We went through a difficult moment, we managed to get back up, then we suffered a tough defeat in the Champions League and it’s never easy to react immediately. Today we beat a very strong team, playing in my opinion an extraordinary first half, even though we weren’t able to capitalize on the chances we created. Then we went behind, but we found the strength to react. I just want to say one thing: we are alive!”
The captain then emphasized the deeper meaning of the performance: “This team must believe in itself, in its own identity and in the ability to bring out something extra especially in difficult moments. Today we managed to do it and this means that we have these qualities inside us. A victory like this makes you realize that even when everything seems complicated, if you keep believing you can change things.”
“Just a few minutes are enough, we proved it today — Rosucci concluded —. In other matches we froze a bit in the face of difficulties, but this comeback teaches us that all it takes is one episode, an individual play, someone who manages to give something extra to completely change a match. Football can change from one minute to the next.”
