Juventus Women began their Serie A Cup Women campaign with a confident 2-0 victory over Como 2000 Women on 22 August 2026. The Bianconere controlled the match from start to finish, and the clean scoreline reflected a mature and professional performance at home.

The cup match was always expected to be a test for Juve, especially with Como 2000 Women bringing a compact, organised setup. But the early exchanges quickly established just how much quality the home side had at their disposal. With a squad full of international talent, Juventus Women used their superior technical ability to prise open the visiting defence and secure a place in the next round.

First-half breakthrough sets the tone

Juventus Women enjoyed the majority of possession from the opening minute and pushed Como 2000 deep into their own half. The final ball was missing early, but pressure kept coming. In the 24th minute, the deadlock was finally broken. A patient build-up from the back ended with a perfectly timed through-ball towards the left channel, and the Juventus forward kept her composure before slotting low into the far corner. It was no more than the home side deserved after a sustained period of territorial dominance.

Como 2000 Women tried to respond, but they rarely threatened the Juventus goal, with the league leaders' midfield pressing and recovering the ball with relentless energy. Just before half-time, Juventus almost doubled their advantage when a powerful strike from the edge of the box rattled the crossbar, but the teams went into the break with a single goal separating them.

Second goal secures the result

The second half followed a familiar pattern. Juventus Women kept possession, moved the ball quickly from flank to flank, and forced Como 2000 to defend for long spells. The second goal was inevitable for long periods, and it arrived in the 63rd minute after a well-worked corner kick. A clean header from the centre-back powered past the goalkeeper to give the home side breathing room and effectively kill the contest as a spectacle.

After that, the match management was simple for Juventus Women. They slowed the pace, kept the ball and denied Como 2000 any genuine route back into the game. Como had a late flurry, with a dangerous shot from distance forcing a good save, but the clean sheet was rarely under serious threat.

Key moments and standout performers

• 24' — Opening goal: A precise finish from inside the box rewarded Juventus Women's early dominance.
• 63' — Header from a corner: The decisive second goal came from a routine set-piece, executed to perfection.
• Defensive solidity: Juventus limited Como 2000 Women to very few attempts, underlining their strength in the cup competition.
• Midfield control: The Bianconere midfield dominated the duel, setting the tempo and preventing any sustained pressure.

What the win means for the competition

For Juventus Women, this 2-0 triumph represents an ideal start to their Serie A Cup Women adventure. It sends a message to the rest of the field that they remain the team to beat and that their depth remains a huge advantage. Como 2000 Women, on the other hand, can take pride in showing organisation and resilience in patches, but they were ultimately outclassed by a side with greater individual quality and attacking firepower.

With progression secured and a clean sheet banked, Juventus Women will move forward with confidence. The cup is a priority for many of the top women's teams in Italy, and this performance suggests that Juventus are more than ready to mount a serious challenge for the trophy.
