"We deserved this Cup," Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret told RAI public broadcaster. "We are thrilled; we gave everything from the first minute to the last."

This was the 12th time the two sides met in a Coppa Italia final. The last time was in May 2012, when Napoli won the trophy with a 2-0 win. The previous 11 matches ended in five Juve victories, four Napoli wins, and two draws.

The match was televised live across the five continents in over 200 countries, including China.
