Kenya, December 19 2025 - Napoli secured their place in the Italian Super Cup final after a composed and disciplined victory over AC Milan, delivering a strong statement against one of their domestic rivals.
The Partenopei approached the semi-final with intensity and tactical clarity, pressing Milan early and controlling key areas of the pitch. Their positive start was rewarded with a first-half breakthrough, as Napoli capitalised on defensive hesitation to take the lead through a David Neres strike and swing momentum firmly in their favour.
AC Milan attempted to respond after the break, increasing the tempo and committing more players forward in search of an equaliser. However, Napoli remained compact and well-organised, limiting clear-cut chances and frustrating Milan’s attacking efforts. The Rossoneri enjoyed spells of possession but struggled to break down Napoli’s defensive structure.
Napoli sealed the result with a decisive second goal through Danish striker Rasmas Hojlund, finishing off a swift attacking move that exposed Milan at the back and effectively ended the contest. From there, Napoli managed the game with confidence, showing maturity and composure to see out the victory.
