Inter celebrated their third successive Italian Super Cup after a dramatic 1:0 victory over Napoli. In this way, the Nerazzurri won the debut edition of the competition in the four-team format, which was held in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
The key moment in the match came after an hour of play when the Serie A champions were reduced to 10 men following a second yellow card for Giovanni Simeone. Inter pressed in search of a winning goal and got it in the first minute of stoppage time when Lautaro Martinez headed home from Benjamin Pavard's assist.
Goal number 123 for the Argentinian Nerazzurri striker took him level with club legend Christian Vieri. Inter won the country's third consecutive Super Cup – the previous two were won after beating Juventus after extra time and over city rivals Milan after 3:0 win.
For Simone Inzaghi's team next will be visiting semi-finalist Fiorentina, while Napoli will be looking to get back to winning ways when they visit the other team that played in the last four for the Super Cup - Lazio. /BGNES
