🔥Comeback: Juventus triumph away at Atlético | OneFootball

Atlético de Madrid Femenino suffered a tough setback at the Alcalá de Henares Sports Center, falling 1-2 to Juventus in the third matchday of the UEFA Women's Champions League group stage. The defeat complicates the outlook for the rojiblanco team in their group, while the "Vecchia Signora" picks up three crucial points.

The match had a promising start for Atleti. Although the Madrid side saw a handball penalty denied in the opening minutes, they managed to open the scoring in the 42nd minute thanks to a fine individual effort finished by Amaiur Sarriegi, making it 1-0. However, the joy was short-lived, as Juventus managed to equalize from a set piece just before halftime, a "cold shower" for the home side.

The decisive blow came at the start of the second half. Juventus capitalized on a cross from the wing to come from behind (1-2), scoring with ease and leaving Atlético unable to respond. Despite Víctor Martín’s offensive changes, including the introduction of Norwegian Vilde Bøe Risa, the Spanish team could not find the key to equalize.

The defeat, their second consecutive at home, leaves Atlético de Madrid with just 3 points in the standings, in a difficult position to aim for one of the four direct qualification spots. Juventus, with 6 points, leaves Madrid strengthened in their fight to advance in the competition.
