Como Women–Servette: Swiss side win 2-0 in friendly test

Como Women’s friendly against Servette, played at the Sport Village training center in Cislago behind closed doors, ends in defeat. The Swiss side secured a 2-0 win with goals from Salomon and Slmonsson in the second half.

Como Women made a bright start and created an early chance after just one minute, when Nischler struck from the penalty spot area but was denied by the opposing goalkeeper, who tipped the ball over the bar for a corner. In the 31st minute, another opportunity came for the hosts as Bernardi delivered a dangerous ball into the box for Pinther, whose first-time effort from the left went over the bar. Servette threatened in the 45th minute through Sobal, but her attempt from the left did not trouble Capelletti.

In the second half, head coach Tramezzani gave playing time to all available squad members. In the 55th minute, Servette took the lead through Salomon, who finished with a low strike in the box following an unfortunate deflection off the Como defense.

Late on, Como Women pushed for an equalizer: Chidiac went close with a free-kick from the edge of the area, and shortly after Ursillo forced the Swiss goalkeeper into a save, turning her effort behind for a corner. However, in stoppage time, Servette sealed the result as Slmonsson capitalized on a defensive error and made it 2-0 with a lob.

From next week, all players on international duty will return, allowing the team to fully prepare for the upcoming league fixture scheduled for Saturday, April 25 at 12:30, when Como Women will face Parma at the Ferruccio Stadium in Seregno.
