Napoli in the silence of Riyadh. The Neapolitans passed 3-0 in the semi-final against Fiorentina, with a cynical and ruthless performance in front of around six thousand fans at Al-Awwai Park (despite the official figure speaking of almost ten thousand, still a desert). The goals from Cholito Simeone and the brace from Zerbin were decisive, as after the Arab trip he will join Frosinone on loan (and will therefore not be there against Cagliari).
The final of this new Italian Super Cup will be on Monday, which will see Mazzarri's men challenge Inter, who this evening scored three goals against Lazio (scored by Thuram, Calhanoglu on a penalty and Frattesi) . Simone Inzaghi's men (who are chasing their fifth Super Cup triumph) made Sarri's team dance at will from the first to the last minute, at the mercy of their opponents for the entire match. A large-scale success which could have been, absurdly, even larger considering the amount of opportunities wasted by Lautaro and his teammates, who also hit two crossbars.
