Women’s Serie A, Sassuolo-Inter 1-1: goals from Tomaselli and Chawinga

Sassuolo has been reconfirmed as a nightmare, once again. Yet the green-and-blacks, bottom in the standings, had lost five of their six league games, winning only one of their last seven home games. It all seemed easy for leaders Inter who, at this point in the tournament, had never in their history put together so many points (16) and goals (22). But tradition has its weight and playing against Sassuolo for the Nerazzurre has always been difficult. They haven’t won us for six matches now, including today’s, which Rita Guarino’s girls, stopped three times from the crossbar, manage to catch up only in the 92nd minute thanks to the usual Chawinga. But this is not enough to defend the summit.

Sassuolo is therefore close to the enterprise, collecting the second point of its championship while remaining at the bottom of the standings. Piovani’s team, however, is alive and had shown it even on the last day against Roma, giving up only in recovery. Inter, fresh from the triumph in the derby, returns the same eleven and at 20 ‘slams into the crossbar with the header of Van der Grat. At half an hour the hosts respond with Monterubbiano, who takes advantage of Alborghetti’s error to fly towards Durante’s goal, but his shot from the edge ends out. At 61 ‘Sassuolo passes: a great cross from the right by Pondini and perfect insertion by Tomaselli, who heads 1-0. At that point Inter reacted and in the 77th minute hit the second crossbar of the match with a blow from Ajara. Woods that will become three, because at 90 ‘even Chawinga’s attempt does not go in for centimeters. But in the 92nd minute the same Malawian striker pushed Marinelli’s cross into the net, scoring the sixth goal of his championship. Emotions that do not end there, because at 95 ‘Durante is forced to fly on the close-range shot of Sciabica.

Inter thus moves to 17 points, but is overtaken by Roma and Fiorentina, now paired in the lead at 18. The Giallorossi, despite the efforts of the Champions League, are confirmed infallible against the newly promoted, with whom they have won 15 of the last 16 matches . Against Como, after a difficult first half, Giacinti’s goal was enough, with his fifth goal in the league, who in the 72nd minute made the most of Glionna’s beautiful ball in the middle, one of the most in the shadows up to that moment. Definitely more complicated afternoon for Fiorentina, who are suffering against a Sampdoria that away from home in 2022 collected the fewest points of all. However, at 15 ‘Gago beats Schroffenegger with a nice diagonal. The viola react, but on a couple of occasions they risk suffering again. Then in two minutes, between 71 ‘and 72’, the match turns completely with Boquete’s header and Mijatovic’s goal, who with three goals has already equaled last season’s performance with the Roma shirt. He hopes to do even better, like Fiorentina, who in the meantime are first together with the Giallorossi.
