Inter Women secured a 2-0 victory over Como, with goals from Lea Vilhjálmsdóttir and Haley Bugeja. This win places the Nerazzurre at the top of the Serie A Femminile table with a perfect record after two matches.

Head coach David Sassarini shared his enthusiasm with Inter TV following the game. "Today's win is very important," he stated. "We are playing well, and what we're doing exceptionally well, even with limited preparation time, is recognizing on-field situations during the match. This is a key characteristic of a strong team."

Sassarini continued, "Even when we're tired, we keep pushing. That's where you see a strong team that wants to win, and that's what makes me happiest. The team commits, and everyone is ready – that's our added value."

He acknowledged the quality of their opponent, noting, "We faced one of the best teams I've seen so far today. They can easily finish in the top five, which makes our work even more valuable."

Looking ahead, Sassarini emphasized, "We believe in our ideas; we train for this every day and are realizing we are a strong team. We head into the break in good form, and the players have earned their rest. Next week, we'll resume preparations for the next match with our usual intensity and focus. The truth is, we're getting used to playing every three days, a situation that doesn't intimidate us. We must continue with this approach, maintaining a clear understanding of our objectives in all areas of the field."
