Wed Oct 16 20:00:37 UTC 2024: ## Juventus Women Suffer First Defeat of the Season to Bayern Munich
**Biella, Italy** – Juventus Women’s First Team suffered their first loss of the season on Wednesday night, falling to Bayern Munich 2-0 in their Women’s Champions League Matchday 2 clash. The defeat ended Juventus’s impressive nine-game winning streak to start the campaign and allowed the German champions to take control of Group D.
The Bianconere were put under immediate pressure from the outset against the experienced Bayern squad. Despite holding firm for the first 17 minutes, Linda Dallman broke the deadlock with a close-range finish after a corner kick caused chaos in the box.
Juventus fought back with Lisa Boattin narrowly missing with a curling effort, while Arianna Caruso’s header went wide. Caruso also had penalty appeals waved away, but Bayern remained resilient and doubled their lead through Pernille Harder in the second half.
Despite the setback, Juventus remain on three points in the group and will look to bounce back in their Serie A clash against Inter Milan this Sunday.
**Other Highlights:**
* Pauline Peyraud-Magnin celebrated her 100th appearance for Juventus during the match.
* Four Juventus players were named in the Serie A Team of the Week.
The result leaves Juventus facing an uphill battle in their Champions League group, but they will be looking to regroup and challenge for the Serie A title.
