— Sep 22nd 2025Gianpiero Piovani's comments ahead of the Serie A Women's Cup semi-final, where the Nerazzurre will face the Italian Champions
The countdown to the Serie A Women’s Cup semi-finals has begun. Inter Women will face Juventus, with kick-off scheduled for Wednesday 24 October at 18:30 CEST at Stadio Romeo Menti in Castellammare. Piovani’s side is going into the match fresh off a win against Hibernian in the first round of the Women’s Europa Cup. The Nerazzurri coach shared his thoughts ahead of the clash against the Bianconere:
“We’re ready for the challenge against Juventus, coming off our match in Scotland against Hibernian, where we secured an important victory and, above all, put on a convincing performance. The players are motivated, like always, despite some minor knocks that we’ve had this week. Their work both on and off the field has been excellent, and I’m very confident. Winning matches is always positive because it boosts self-esteem. Morale is very high right now, and it’s great for both the staff and me to see the players smiling. Of course, in tougher moments, we’ll need to manage things differently, but fortunately, that hasn’t happened so far. We want to continue in this way, which I believe is the right one to achieve great results. It will be a tough game because we’re facing the Italian Champions. Last year we finished just behind them, and we know the quality of Juventus. We’ll fight hard and, above all, aim to play good football.”
