The Women’s U15s Final Stage started with a draw, as the opening game against Roma ended 1-1 at the “Romagna Centro” in Cesena. After trailing by one goal with 15 minutes to go, the Nerazzurre coached by De Maria didn’t give up even for a moment and found the back of the net right at the death of the match from a corner kick and equalised the score, thanks to a well-placed lob header scored by Laura Cortinovis (born in 2008).

Atalanta will be back on the pitch tomorrow, Sunday 26 June, for the second matchday, to face Brixen Obi at 16:30 CEST at C.S. San Vittore in Cesena. On Monday 27 June, the Nerazzurre take on Juventus at 16:30 CEST at C.S. San Vittore in Cesena, which will be the third and final group fixture. The top-placed side will fight for the national title in the final, which is scheduled for 29 June.
