The Napoli Supercoppa Italiana winner Riyadh 2025 title was officially secured on Monday night, December 22, 2025, at the King Saud University Stadium. In a dominant display of tactical discipline, Antonio Conte’s side defeated Bologna 2-0 to claim their second piece of silverware in the 2025 calendar year. This victory marks Napoli’s third Super Cup triumph in club history and their first since 2014, further cementing their status as the current powerhouse of Italian football following their Scudetto win earlier in the year.
The star of the Napoli Supercoppa Italiana winner Riyadh 2025 final was undoubtedly David Neres. The Brazilian winger, who has been in scintillating form, opened the scoring in the 39th minute with a spectacular 25-yard curling effort that left Bologna goalkeeper Federico Ravaglia rooted to the spot. Neres then doubled the lead in the 57th minute, capitalizing on a defensive lapse to dink a delicate finish over the keeper. Having also scored in the semi-final victory over AC Milan, Neres ended the tournament as the top scorer and was widely hailed by the Italian press as the “Prince of Riyadh.”
The Napoli Supercoppa Italiana winner Riyadh 2025 success is a significant milestone for manager Antonio Conte, who has now secured 11 major trophies in his managerial career. By pairing the Serie A title with the Supercoppa, Conte has replicated a feat not seen in Naples since the 1990 season under the legendary Diego Maradona. Despite missing key players like Kevin De Bruyne and Alex Meret due to injury, Napoli’s defensive structure remained impenetrable, with Vanja Milinkovic-Savic producing a crucial save from Lewis Ferguson to maintain the clean sheet.
Following the Napoli Supercoppa Italiana winner Riyadh 2025 celebrations, President Aurelio De Laurentiis praised the squad’s resilience and encouraged fans to “keep dreaming” of a historic treble. While Bologna last season’s Coppa Italia holders offered brief resistance through the efforts of Lewis Ferguson and Riccardo Orsolini, they were ultimately outclassed by a Napoli side that appeared physically and tactically superior. The “Azzurri” now return to Italy sitting third in the Serie A standings, just two points behind leaders Inter Milan, as they prepare for a high-stakes January run.
