Football Juventus 0-4 Arsenal: Renee Slegers remains undefeated after crucial UWCL victory

Arsenal delivered an outstanding performance, defeating Juventus 4-0 in Turin, solidifying their position in Group C of the Women’s Champions League. Under the interim head coach Renee Slegers, the Gunners remain unbeaten and show promising signs for the rest of the competition.

Intense start

In just the third minute, Juventus had a golden opportunity to open the scoring, but Daphne van Domselaar, replacing Manuela Zinsberger in goal, brilliantly blocked Sofia Cantore’s effort. Despite Juventus’ strong start, Arsenal quickly took control of the match.

Arsenal takes the lead

Former Gunner Pauline Peyraud-Magnin, now Juventus’ goalkeeper, made several spectacular saves to deny Katie McCabe, Alessia Russo, and Emily Fox. However, she could do nothing to stop Frida Maanum’s strike in the 38th minute, which capped off a superb team move initiated by Leah Williamson and Caitlin Foord.

Arsenal dominates the second half

After the break, Arsenal continued to press for a second goal. Emily Fox saw her shot hit the crossbar before Leah Williamson scored with a header. Substitutes Stina Blackstenius and Mariona Caldentey then sealed the victory with two more goals, before Caitlin Foord added a fourth to complete a perfect evening.

Impressive team performance

Renee Slegers praised her players’ humility and teamwork, highlighting their determination to defend until the final whistle. “Winning against Juventus in this manner is a fantastic result. It was a huge challenge, and the girls showed remarkable collective strength,” she said. With this victory, Arsenal moves to second place in Group C, with a three-point cushion over Juventus ahead of next week’s return match. The Gunners have won four of their last five matches since Jonas Eidevall left the club, and the future looks bright under Renee Slegers’ leadership.
