Supercoppa Italiana: Ronaldo on target as Juventus earns win over Napoli

Goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Alvaro Morata helped Juventus beat Napoli 2-0 to win the Italian Supercup on Wednesday, the annual meeting between the Coppa Italia winner and Serie A champion.
Napoli, which beat Juventus in the final to win last season's Coppa Italia, came close to taking the lead midway through the first half, but Hirving Lozano's bullet header was brilliantly saved by Juve goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.
Substitute Federico Bernardeschi almost made an immediate impact early in the second half but was denied by David Ospina in the Napoli goal, before Ronaldo pounced from close range in the 64th minute.
Napoli was then handed a golden opportunity to equalise after Dries Mertens was fouled in the penalty area, but Lorenzo Insigne dragged his spot kick wide.
As Gennaro Gattuso's side committed bodies forward in stoppage time, Juve broke on the counter with Morata making sure of the win that secured Andrea Pirlo his first trophy as a senior coach.
"It is a great joy to win a trophy," Pirlo told Rai Sport. "It is even more beautiful than winning as a player.
"It is difficult to see beautiful finals. It was important to win above all after the defeat against Inter (Milan in Serie A on Sunday). We had to show our pride."
The Supercup final is often played abroad with the last two editions in Saudi Arabia. However, Wednesday's match was contested in Italy at Sassuolo's Mapei Stadium due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The first hour of the contest was cagey, with few clear-cut chances. Even Ronaldo was quiet before he scored his 20th goal of the season in all competitions.
The referee awarded Napoli the penalty after consulting the pitchside monitor but Insigne wasted the opportunity, missing from the spot for the third time against Juventus in all competitions.
Morata then came off the bench to tap home at the far post to complete the win.
"With Lorenzo (Insigne) the first thing he has to do is not to feel the responsibility," Gattuso said. "The first culprit is me, not Insigne.
"I congratulated my boys because they played the game they had to. We must respect Juve."
AC Milan suffered a crushing 0-3 defeat at the hands of rivals Atalanta , but maintain top spot with Inter failing to capitalize
*Juventus and Napoli have played a match less than the rest of Serie A
Inter beat Milan in fiesty Coppa match after Ibrahimovic sent off
AC Milan's Zlatan Ibrahimovic was sent off before forgotten man Christian Eriksen fired a dramatic late winner to earn Internazionale a 2-1 victory in a fiery Coppa Italia quarterfinal in the San Siro on Tuesday.
Ibrahimovic's match started in typically clinical fashion in front of goal after the evergreen Swede superbly fired home in the 31st minute to give Milan the lead -- his eighth goal in seven appearances for Milan against Inter in all competitions.
As the first half drew to a close, Ibrahimovic was booked for his part in a clash with Inter's Romelu Lukaku, with the pair, former teammates at Manchester United, continuing their argument down the tunnel at halftime.
Both seemed to have calmed down after the break, but Ibrahimovic picked up his second yellow for a trip on Aleksandar Kolarov and was sent off in the 58th minute
Inter took advantage of the extra man, with their top goalscorer Lukaku firing a 71st-minute penalty into the net off the underside of the crossbar to equalise.
Inter bombarded the Milan goal but could not find a winner until substitute Eriksen stepped up with a stoppage-time free kick to book his side a semi-final clash with either Juventus or SPAL who play on Wednesday
