INTER VS. NAPOLI WOMEN | THE MATCH

At the Arena Civica in Milano, Inter lined up against Napoli with the duo of Wullaert and Bugeja in attack. The game began cautiously as both sides felt each other out. Inter’s first real chance came from Glionna, who received a pass from Schough but couldn’t find the target. Banusic was the biggest threat for Napoli in the first half: she had a go with her left foot (32') before wasting an opportunity from a Rúnarsdottir clearance shortly afterwards. After a goalless first half, the Nerazzurre came out with more aggression. Ten minutes into the second half, Bugeja opened the scoring, finishing off Andres' assist for her seventh league goal of the season. Inter kept control and doubled their lead in the 65th minute when Wullaert, set up by Detruyer, beat Beretta with a precise left-footed strike to score her twelfth league goal of the campaign. The Belgian striker moved into Inter’s all-time top scorers’ podium with 26 goals, level with Chawinga. Napoli pulled a goal back just over ten minutes from time through Fløe (78'), who also launched a counter-attack that allowed Barker to equalise (86'). In between, Tomasevic nearly scored a spectacular long-range effort, only for Beretta to tip it away. Inter took a point from the match and move up to 34 in the league table.
