Juventus Women staged a remarkable comeback, erasing a two-goal deficit against Roma to secure the Serie A Women's Cup in a penalty shootout. Captain Martina Rosucci described the win as an incredibly strong feeling, emphasizing the team's belief and their motto: "until the end."

Rosucci spoke to Juventus.com following the victory, sharing the team's emotions. "It's an incredibly strong feeling," she said. "When you're down 2-0 and manage to come back and win on penalties, those are emotions that really sink into a team. We train to win, but achieving it while staying true to our identity is doubly satisfying. Today, I believe we truly played the kind of game the coach is asking for, and winning like this, until the very end, always gives you that extra something."

The captain recounted the team's unwavering conviction in their comeback bid despite being two goals down. "Our motto is 'until the end,' and we believed in it right up to the finish," Rosucci explained. "We were still in the game and felt we were getting closer. I told the players, 'Let's score one goal, and the momentum will shift,' and that's exactly what happened."

With the cup celebrations winding down, Rosucci's focus has already shifted to the next challenge: the Champions League. Juventus is preparing to move to the Allianz stadium for their upcoming match. "Honestly, I'm already thinking about the next game," she stated. "We have two days to recover. The Champions League is a fantastic objective, and we'll be at the Allianz. So, I think our minds are already there."
