Serie A delivered another weekend of high drama, with Juventus securing their spot in the UEFA Women's Champions League and Genoa facing the heartbreak of relegation. Match-day 21 of the 2025/26 season brought edge-of-your-seat action, and we've got all the highlights right here.
The Derby d'Italia between Juventus and Inter was nothing short of a spectacle—a six-goal thriller that had everything. The fireworks started early when Chiara Robustellini fired Inter into the lead after just two minutes. The 22-year-old unleashed a fierce strike from the left corner of the box that left goalkeeper Daniëlle de Jong rooted to the spot. Juventus responded quickly, with an own goal from Ivana Andrés leveling the score, but Robustellini wasn't done yet, netting her second of the night within the opening 10 minutes.
The chaos continued as both sides traded penalties. Barbara Bonansea drilled her spot-kick straight down the middle to make it 2-2, but Inter's top scorer, Tessa Wullaert, restored their advantage from the spot after a mistimed tackle from Amalie Vangsgaard. Determined to make amends, Vangsgaard grabbed Juventus's third equalizer of the half, rifling a right-footed shot into the roof of the net. That would be the last goal of the match, and the point was enough for Juventus to clinch third place and a Champions League berth with a game to spare.
Elsewhere, the mood was somber in Genoa as their relegation was confirmed following a 3-2 defeat to Fiorentina. The home side started brightly, with Alma Hilaj scoring her second goal of the season to give them an early lead. But Fiorentina quickly hit back through Sofie Bredgaard's stunning piledriver from distance—the Denmark international set the ball perfectly before unleashing a powerful strike past Camilla Forcinella.
Fiorentina took control in the second half. Ilse van der Zanden scored her first Serie A goal to put the visitors ahead, and Iris Ómarsdóttir added a third with a well-timed header. Genoa showed fight until the end, with Alice Söndergaard pulling one back, but it wasn't enough to save them from the drop. It's a bitter end for a team that fought hard all season, but the quality of Fiorentina ultimately proved too much.
With just one match-day left, the drama is far from over in Serie A. Stay tuned for more action as the season reaches its thrilling conclusion.
