Italy Wins Women's Volleyball World Championship, Secures Third in Rugby World Cup

Italy's women's sports teams have recently achieved significant victories across multiple disciplines. In the 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup, Italy dominated Brazil with a 64-3 victory, scoring 12 tries and maintaining their record of winning at least one match in every tournament they have entered. The Italian women's volleyball team, coached by Julio Velasco, claimed the world championship title by defeating Turkey in a tightly contested match, marking their 35th consecutive victory since June 2024 and solidifying their top position in the global rankings. In Italian women's football, the inaugural Serie A Women’s Cup saw Roma and Inter maintain perfect records, with Roma narrowly defeating Milan and Inter securing a 3-1 win over Fiorentina despite a late red card. Inter's performance was noted for its intensity and quick goal-scoring, highlighting players like Elisa Polli and Karolina Vilhjalmsdottir. The Serie A Women’s Cup format, beginning this season, involves 12 teams competing in groups leading to knockout rounds, aiming to increase competition before the league season starts.
