MASERU, Lesotho (Interstat) — Italy’s women’s national team routed Austria 4-0 in an international friendly on Saturday at Bambatha Tṧita Sports Arena. The victory improved Italy’s record in the friendly competition to two wins and one draw. Austria, which saw its record in the competition even at 1-1-1, scored its lone goal in the 43rd minute via Julia Hickelsberger-Füller. The result defied a pregame projection from Interstat that forecast a 1-1 draw, though its system heavily favored Italy to win.
