The team was declared winners of the Italian Cup on Wednesday, 17th June 2020 with coach Gennaro Gattuso bagging his first major trophy as manager.Napoli denied Juventus from clinching a treble this season when the shootout saw the former convert all shots while Juve\u2019s Paulo Dybala and Danilo missed their first two attempts. The win gave Napoli the championship trophy for the sixth time.It is also the first title won in the Italian season after a three-month long hiatus due to the global Covid-19 pandemic. The initial plan was to have the players collecting their own medals at the ceremony, but they were instead presented the honours from their respective club presidents, Aurelio De Laurentiis and Andrea Agnelli.Gattuso\u2019s managerial takeover in December after the team\u2019s defiance against De Laurentiis\u2019 week-long training camp made his victory even more notable. The 42 year-old said, “Football has given me so much and that is why I have so much passion for it. It’s something I can’t let go of, not even for a second.”“Those of us who have this job must have respect for it because we’re lucky. I want to see people who put passion into it, I want a sense of belonging and respect.”Napoli could have snatched victory in stoppage time if not for Gianluigi Buffon who made two amazing saves, denying Nikola Maksimovic\u2019s header and Eljif Elmas\u2019 point-black shot coming off a rebound onto the post.Napoli had the best chances throughout the game leaving a frustrated Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo with little opportunity for possession. Lorenzo Insigne\u2019s 30-metre free kick attempt in the first half was blocked by Buffon while Arkadiusz Milik\u2019s shot went over the bar.As both the teams are still in the Champions League, Juventus was chasing for the ninth successive title since the initial match as he was drawn from both the games 0-0 in the lead series A.Since the restart, Juventus has had goalless draws in both their matches and are currently in the lead in Serie A, hoping to bag a ninth successive title. Both teams are still in the Champions League."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"International","item":"https:\/\/thehomeground.asia\/international\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Napoli Defeat Juventus to Win Italian Cup and Give Gennaro Gattuso First Trophy as Coach","item":"https:\/\/thehomeground.asia\/international\/napoli-defeat-juventus-to-win-italian-cup-and-give-gennaro-gattuso-first-trophy-as-coach\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
