Napoli beat Juventus 4-2 on penalties to lift the Italian Cup for the sixth time after the score was 0-0 after 90 minutes in an empty Stadio Olimpco in Rome.

It is the first trophy for the southerners since 2014, and also a maiden coaching trophy for Gennaro Gattuso who replaced Carlo Ancelotti in December.
