[VIDEO] Napoli stun Juventus to win 6th Coppa Italia

Juventus hope of kickstarting the season back on track suffered an embarrassment as they lose 4-2 on penalties after a 0-0 draw against Napoli.

Maurizio Sarri is slightly more embarrassed, as he lose to the club he managed two seasons ago.

But it was a joy to behold for Napoli coach, Gennaro Gattuso as he won his first major trophy in his coaching career.

 

Napoli surprisingly had most of the chances to win throughout 90 minutes but were consistently denied by Juventus legend, Gianluigi Buffon.

But Buffon unable to replicate his form in the penalty shootout as Napoli converted all of their attempts, while Juventus came up short as Paulo Dybala and Danilo missed their spot-kick.

It was a remarkable achievement for 42-year-old Gattuso, who took over Napoli in December after the players had rebelled against a week-long training camp imposed by the club president, Aurelio De Laurentiis.
