Serie A debut sees Como storm past Milan

Emilie Haavi opened the scoring for newly promoted Como 1907 after just 13 minutes, firing a low finish past AC Milan goalkeeper Sandra Estevez from a perfectly weighted through ball by Tessa Wullaert. The early strike set the tone for a 4‑1 victory in Como’s first Serie A encounter.

How the debut unfolded

Haavi doubled the lead a few minutes later, striking from just inside the box after a defensive header from a near‑post corner bounced back to her. Her second effort, a powerful shot, left Estevez with no chance. AC Milan pulled one back through Christy Grimshaw just before the 70th minute, but the hosts restored control in stoppage time when Martyna Wiankowska and Wullaert combined to seal the win.
