Juventus players enjoyed 'revenge' over Napoli in Super Cup

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio admits they were delighted with revenge in winning the Super Cup against Napoli.

It was a replay of the Coppa Italia Final on May 20, which saw Walter Mazzarri's men emerge 2-0 winners.

Marchisio said: "This was a good 'revenge' for that game. It was a tough victory that allowed us to start the season well.

"Once again today we showed character by coming back twice from a goal down. We conceded while we were attacking.

"It was difficult, as they marked us in midfield, defended with eight men and went on rapid counter-attacks."
