"Things started very well for the Rossoneri as Evelyn Ijeh scored in the 20th minute. It was a goal like that of a true striker: a beautiful cross from the right by Renzotti, and in the six-yard box a volley from the Swede through a crowd sent De Jong the wrong way. Right on the stroke of half-time, Juventus equalised through Girelli."
"The second half began with Bakker's crucial substitution. Renzotti was struggling with injury and made way for Dompig, then up until the hour mark they had to dig deep to defend against a siege from the Bianconere. Then, suddenly, the winning goal arrived in the 65th minute. Dompig showed her experience in the penalty area and, following a series of rebounds, was in the right place at the right time to fire a loose ball into the top corner of the far post."
Milan rebounded from recent setbacks by defeating Lazio the previous week, after two earlier defeats to Roma and Fiorentina where leads were surrendered. Van Dooren scored twice in the opening 18 minutes against Lazio, Renzotti made it 3-1 and Ijeh finished 4-2 inside the final quarter of an hour. Against Juventus, Evelyn Ijeh opened the scoring in the 20th minute from a Renzotti cross. Juventus equalised just before half-time through Girelli. Renzotti was replaced by Dompig after the break, and Dompig netted the 65th-minute winner following rebounds, the goal confirmed by VAR. Milan held on to win and sit third with nine points from five games.
