The match between SSD Napoli (Women) and Sampdoria (Women) was characterized by a defensive showdown, with both teams struggling to break each other's defensive lines. Napoli's inability to convert their 10 corner kicks into scoring opportunities was a significant factor in their defeat. Despite having more corner opportunities than Sampdoria, who only had 7, Napoli failed to capitalize on set pieces, which is often crucial in tightly contested matches.

Sampdoria demonstrated effective use of their chances, converting one of their few opportunities to seal the victory. The crucial goal came early in the second half at the 01:11:38 mark, highlighting a breakdown in Napoli's defensive organization at a key moment. Napoli’s defense held strong until that point, but the lapse proved costly, emphasizing Sampdoria's efficiency in front of goal.

Discipline was a concern for both squads as the match grew tense in the second half. Napoli was shown three yellow cards, two of which came after the break, indicating possible fatigue or frustration. Sampdoria was not far behind, receiving two yellow cards in the second half. Both teams avoided red cards, which could have swung the match significantly, but these infractions point to a physical game that disrupted the flow and rhythm for Napoli, particularly affecting their ability to mount successful attacks without inadvertently conceding strategic fouls.
