"Napoli booked their place in the Supercoppa Italiana final after goals in either half from David Neres and Rasmus Hojlund sealed a 2-0 win over AC Milan. The current Serie A champions will face the winner of the other semi-final between Bologna and Inter on Friday, with the showpiece match taking place on December 22. Mike Maignan almost gifted Napoli an early goal when he spilled Matteo Politano's inviting corner, but on the rebound, Eljif Elmas could only steer his effort wide of the mark."
"Napoli were quickest out the blocks following the interval, with Maignan again on hand to keep their lead at just one, this time saving Amir Rrahmani's attempt from distance. However, the Partenopei would get the goal their performance deserved in the 63rd minute when Hojlund spun past Koni De Winter before unleashing a stunning finish that struck the base of the right post on its way in."
