The 2018/2019 has been the consecration of the women's football movement, it obtained the visibility and respect for which it had been struggling for years.
The season was crowned with the World Cup, which we followed during "Women do Football" events, won by the United States of Rapinoe and Morgan in the final against the Netherlands of Van de Sanden and Miedema, who with her goal eliminated the Italian National team.
On 14th September the Championship will start again and today the calendar has been officially presented, with many new features and a summer market that has rewritten some hierarchies. At the start, there will be 12 clubs, among which there won't be however the Atalanta Mozzanica, that at the beginning of July announced the renouncement to enroll in the top league after 20 years. The refusal of registration also by Filmauto Valpolicella led to the repechage of the Pink Bari and the Orobica.
Among the new entries, there will be Empoli and Inter, newly promoted and ready to annoy the big names of the tournament like Juventus Women, Fiorentina Women, Milan and Rome, the team that more than any others has reinforced in the last transfer market, stealing an important player to the AC Milan like Manuela Giuliano.
On the first day, the Giallorossi and Milan will face each other, who also saw a change on the bench, with Maurizio Ganz replacing Carolina Morace. Another big match on the first day will be the Florence Derby, followed by the Milan one on the third day. Match-days 7 and 8 will be particularly challenging for Sara Gama and Bonansea, with the top matches against Roma and Fiorentina, before closing the group with Tavagnacco.
While waiting for the championship to begin, we can only hope that the bases set last year by the Italian and world women's movement are only a first step towards the birth of a professional movement. In the same way, the hope is that the flat rates of teams like Atalanta Mozzanica are only isolated cases and not signs of a wider problem, which can make women's football sink back again into oblivion.
