Women Do Football - Italy vs Netherlands viewing party

Last Saturday a very hot Milan was eagerly waiting to see on the field the girls of the National Football team, in the quarterfinal match against the Netherlands, the current European champions. Despite the solid performance, the team of Gama, Bonansea and Giacinti conceded two goals that cost the access to the semifinals of the Women's World Cup that is about to end in France. A disappointment, sure, but also a historic moment to be proud of. The Women's Team must be proud of what they did, positioning themselves in the first eight teams in the world, managing to break barriers and stereotypes, meeting the favour and the interest of an audience hooked to this sport, that has followed the girls throughout every match, cheering on them and rejoicing at every goal. 

There is not women's match without its viewing party, that this time took place at the Elita Bar, in the evocative Navigli area. The community of football enthusiasts gathered for one last time to cheer all together on the Italian girls, escaping the Milanese heat thanks to fresh drinks and tasty food. 

Also, the Women Do Football viewing parties come to an end, a series of events that has proved how big the interest towards female football is. A focus we hope will last even after the end of the World Cup.
