FULL TIME IN EXTRA TIME! Despite Juve dominating extra time, opportunistic goals from Higuain have kept the Partenopei in with a big chance to lift the Italian Super Cup. Penalties, it is!
118'
G. Higuaín has scored a goal for Napoli! Assist by W. Gargano.
GOOOOOOOOOOOAL! HIGUAIN EQUALISES AGAIN! The Argentina international manages to bundle an untidy finish beyond Buffon, after a cross from the right-hand side wasn't dealt with by the Juve defence! Buffon is wrongfooted, with the former Real Madrid forward able to slide in between Padoin and Chiellini to poke home a finish!
117'
Ghoulam shows a turn of pace to break down the left-hand side, but his eventual cross sails harmlessly out of play for a goal kick. Buffon is in no rush, with only a few minutes of extra time remaining in this contest. Juve have one hand on the trophy!
116'
Higuain asks for a penalty, but the referee isn't interested! The Napoli striker controls a ball in to his feet from Maggio, before looking to turn to his right under pressure from Chiellini. The Argentine claims he was fouled, but there didn't appear to be a huge amount of contact from the defender!
115'
Benitez is gesturing for his players to push forward, as time starts to become a major constraint for the Partenopei. A cross is whipped in by Maggio from the right, but Chiellini rises well at the near post to head clear!
113'
Narrowly over five minutes of extra time remains for Napoli to find an equaliser, with Juve happy to sit back and absorb pressure, before finding the likes of Morata and Tevez upfield. Bonucci nearly makes a terrible error on the edge of his own box, but Buffon is switched on to the danger and slides in ahead of Callejon, who was set to steal in and try his luck!
111'
Great save from Buffon! Higuain manages to get in behind the Juve back four, before unleashes a powerful one-on-one effort! The goalkeeper guesses the right way, getting strong wrists behind the ball to parry it to safety!
110'
Morata is set away down the left-hand side, but Maggio gets back ahead of the substitute to buy a free kick from his pressure. Napoli are beginning to press forward in a desperate bid to restore parity, but Benitez's men might just have run out of ideas.
108'
Well, that puts the ball firmly in Napoli's court! The Partenopei have to find an equaliser now, otherwise it will be black and white ribbons on the Super Cup at the 120-minute mark. Tevez is booked for a cynical foul on Albiol.
107'
C. Tevez gets yellow.
106'
C. Tevez has scored a goal for Juventus! Assist by P. Pogba.
Two changes, one for each side, at the break. Morata is chosen to partner Tevez, with Llorente withdrawn, while Jorginho comes into midfield to replace De Guzman. Only 15 minutes separate us from now and a penalty shoot-out, if nobody can take the lead!
GOOOOOOOOOOAL! TEVEZ FIRES JUVE 2-1 AHEAD! What a move and finish! The Argentine receives the ball from Pogba, before shaping to play a return pass, but instead dummies the ball to himself! The former Man City striker turns Koulibaly brilliantly, before firing a low drive into the bottom-left corner! Ingenious!
105'
Álvaro Morata enters the game and replaces Fernando Llorente.
F. Ghoulam gets yellow.
Jorginho enters the game and replaces J. de Guzmán.
Napoli are happy to sit extremely deep in their own half, making almost a back five or six at times. Higuain and De Guzman are being left to chase lost causes, but the Partenopei are still completely in this contest. Callejon tries to clip a ball in behind Evra for Higuain to chase, but Buffon claims.
HALF TIME! We're midway through the extra-time period, with Juve having much the better of play since the restart. Vidal and Tevez have had the best opportunities, but Napoli continue to pose a threat on the break.
103'
Albiol slides in brilliantly to deny Tevez, with Pogba starting to have more and more of an effect on proceedings. The France international appears to be playing at half pace, but is sauntering through extra time and looking extremely composed.
101'
Goal-line clearance from Koulibaly! Evra works his way to the byline, before cutting back an intelligent cross! Vidal meets it at the back post, turning it inside the near post with his first touch, but the French defender makes a brilliant block! Napoli survive, just!
100'
Evra and Pogba combine well down the left-hand side, before the latter chops inside and tries to curl an effort goalwards! Rafael is able to catch the cross-cum-shot easily. Juve are continuing to pile on the extra-time pressure.
98'
Good work from Tevez, as the Argentine drives at the heart of the Napoli defence, before shifting a pass towards his strike partner. The Spain international turns smartly, before firing wide of the target with his weaker left foot, with Rafael confident enough to watch it sail out for a goal kick.
96'
Good effort from Pereyra! Tevez finds Pogba, before the Frenchman finds the feet of Llorente. The Spaniard takes a poor first touch, which Pereyra steals, before curling an effort towards the right-hand post! Rafael makes a diving save and moments later is on hand to make a comfortable catch from a Pogba header.
94'
Vidal is found on the edge of the area, before play is shifted over to Pogba on the left-hand side. After trying to break past Maggio, the Italian right-back is left in a heap on the floor, leading to the Frenchman being penalised for a foul.
92'
There's only one change as we start the additional period, with David Lopez being replaced by Gokhan Inler. Tevez tries his luck with his right foot from 30 yards out, but can only send the ball hurtling five yards above the crossbar!
91'
And so, extra time begins in Doha! This clash has been very competitive, with two slight mistakes at fault for both goals. Half chances have been common, but both goalkeepers haven't had a great deal to do in terms of shot-stopping.
90' +3
This means half an hour of extra time in the Italian Super Cup, with the scores poised at 1-1 between Juventus and Napoli. Tevez and Higuain's goals were not enough to separate the two sides, with fatigue now being called into question. After a brief pause, we'll be back underway.
90' +2
There's the end of the second half! Juve are unable to make their pressure tell, with Napoli managing to scramble a few late clearances to safety to keep the Old Lady at bay! Tevez went closest late on, but it just wasn't quite meant to be!
90' +1
There are two minutes of stoppage time.
90'
G. İnler enters the game and replaces David López.
Tevez drags an effort wide! The Argentine striker is able to slide in and poke a shot wide of the far post, as the ball slips through the legs of Lopez and off target! Bonucci drops to his knees, that was the opportunity to win it!
88'
Only a couple of minutes of normal time remain, with the Bianconeri continuing to lead the charge. Napoli break out on a quick counter, but Chiellini manages to rob Higuain of the ball and is then promptly fouled by Lopez.
86'
Vidal is found in space on the edge of the Napoli box, before unleashing a right-footed effort, but can only drag the ball well wide of the left-hand post! Benitez continues to gesticulate on the sideline for the Partenopei, as we head towards the 90-minute mark in Doha.
85'
Pogba drives down the right-hand side, before clipping a cross towards the back post, but Ghoulam heads clear to spark a Napoli break. Callejon is quickly found on the right flank, but his attempted cross is deflected away for a throw in by Chiellini. That's another opportunity spurned by the Spaniard!
83'
D. Mertens gets yellow.
The Bianconeri continue to press forward, with Higuain left as a very isolated figure at the head of the Partenopei attack. Mertens picks up a yellow card for a very untidy tackle on Padoin.
81'
Albiol and Koulibaly are forced to hook away clearances from within their own penalty area, as the Old Lady begin to press. Under ten minutes of normal time are left to play, with the Serie A leaders beginning to search for an elusive second goal. Napoli may have spent their energy slightly too early.
80'
Raúl Albiol gets yellow.
79'
S. Padoin enters the game and replaces S. Lichtsteiner.
D. Mertens enters the game and replaces M. Hamšík.
Hamsik is withdrawn for the Partenopei, as Mertens is introduced, with Padoin replacing Lichtsteiner for Juventus. Fresh legs are the order of the day, with De Guzman presumably moving into a more central position for Benitez's men. Not long remains for the substitutes to have a telling impact on proceedings.
77'
Tevez tries to drive to the right byline, but Koulibaly matches his marker for pace and concedes a corner. The delivery is half cleared, before Callejon gives the ball away on the edge of his own box - but the Bianconeri are unable to put their opposition to the sword. Mertens is being readied by Benitez.
76'
José Callejón gets yellow.
75'
We're into the final quarter of an hour in Qatar, with this contest delicately poised! Juve are just starting to look a little bit brighter, with Llorente just turning an early Lichtsteiner cross wide of the near post with a firm header!
73'
Llorente manages to hold up the ball just inside the Napoli penalty area, setting a lay-off back to Tevez. The Argentine forward scuffs his attempt, however, sending the ball into the turf and up into Rafael's arms!
72'
Another cross is swung into the box in search of Higuain, but Buffon is quick off his line to claim ahead of the Napoli goalscorer. Pogba wins a corner for Juve at the other end of the field, but Tevez fails to whip the set piece delivery over the first man. Pirlo looks on in disgust.
70'
R. Pereyra gets yellow.
Game on in the Italian Super Cup final! Napoli are looking full of confidence and resurgent since the break, with that goal only giving the Partenopei further encouragement. Juve are struggling to wrestle control back from their opponents.
68'
G. Higuaín has scored a goal for Napoli! Assist by J. de Guzmán.
GOOOOOOOOOOAL! HIGUAIN MAKES IT 1-1 IN DOHA! De Guzman delivers a cross from the left, after Koulibaly robbed Tevez of the ball, and directs it onto his teammate's head! The Argentine makes no mistake, steering a close-range header into the bottom-right corner! Pirlo hasn't even had time to take his seat on the bench and he doesn't look happy.
67'
R. Pereyra enters the game and replaces A. Pirlo.
66'
Pirlo is withdrawn for the Bianconeri, with Pereyra thrown into the fray in his place. The experienced midfielder hasn't enjoyed his most effective performance this evening, with Vidal and Marchisio able to both sit further back to accommodate the former Udinese man.
65'
Easy save for Buffon! A free kick is delivered from the right-hand side, which picks out Albiol at the back post, but the Spain international can only guide a tame header within the reach of the Juve goalkeeper.
64'
Lopez has a half chance of nodding a close-range header towards goal, but Pogba tracks back well to intercept and earn the praise of his goalkeeper! Juve appear to just be taking a breather at the moment, repelling the Partenopei's resurgence with relative ease.
62'
Evra cuts a cross in towards the near post, which is poked towards goal by Llorente but kicked and deflected wide by a combination of Rafael and Albiol! Desperate defending from the Partenopei, with the former Athletic Bilbao striker heading over the crossbar from the resulting corner!
60'
So close from Higuain! The Argentine tries his luck from close range and from a very tight angle! His chip loops over Buffon, but just clips the far upright! The ball is kept alive and centred, but Evra slides in brilliantly to deny a second chance for Napoli! Benitez's men are threatening!
59'
Lopez shoots wide! The Spaniard opens up his body on the edge of the area, before trying to curl an effort around Bonucci and into the far corner! His shot beats both the defender and Buffon, but also lasers over the target.
58'
Napoli are continuing to push forward in search of an equaliser, with both Tevez and Llorente seeing very little of the ball in the second half. Maggio tries to clip a cross towards the back post, but Vidal rises above De Guzman to head clear!
56'
A few substitutes are starting to warm up on the sidelines, with both coaches presumably set to look for offensive catalysts in the next ten minutes or so. Hamsik and Lopez nearly combine to good effect, but Buffon is able to race out and claim a through ball ahead of the Spaniard.
54'
CALLEJON FIRES WIDE! That was a huge chance for the Napoli forward! The Spaniard is found just inside the Juve penalty area, before dragging a shot wide of the far post with only Buffon to beat! That should have been the equaliser!
53'
Callejon tries to send a cross in towards Higuain from the right flank, but ends up sending the ball hurtling behind for a goal kick. His former Real Madrid teammate holds up a thumb of encouragement. Chances haven't been forthcoming since the start of the second period.
51'
Pirlo lines up a free kick from 35 yards out, but the wall does its job and Lopez makes a timely block. Rafael is unable to stop the ball from looping behind for a corner, which is headed wide of the target by Evra! The Frenchman couldn't quite make enough contact with a diving header!
49'
De Guzman drives down the left-hand side, but Bonucci steps out well to deny the Netherlands international. Despite controlling possession since the restart, Juve have made a couple of dangerous errors which have lead to threatening scenarios that required defusing.
47'
There are no changes from either coach at the break, though both have a host of possibilities to introduce. Dries Mertens, in particular, could offer something a bit more offensive than De Guzman on the left-hand side. Juve open up the second half with some assured possession.
46'
We are back underway in the second half in Qatar! The Bianconeri may have a one-goal lead, but the Partenopei still have plenty of opportunity to restore parity and go on to lift the trophy by the end of play.
45' +1
G. Higuaín gets yellow.
Ghoulam delivers a half-volleyed cross from the left byline, but Buffon is able to claim easily at his near post. Higuain is then penalised for a clumsy foul on compatriot Tevez, with the striker earning himself a needless yellow card - despite there not being much contact.
45'
There is one minute of stoppage time at the end of the first half.
44'
Pirlo concedes a free kick on the edge of his own penalty area, leaving Juve with a difficult scenario to face just ahead of the interval. Ghoulam takes, but strikes the wall, before seeing his effort from the rebound blocked too!
42'
Callejon whips in another cross from the right-hand side, but Hamsik is again unable to turn the ball goalwards at the near post due to Vidal getting in ahead of him! The second Napoli delivery is hooked away by Pogba, before the Partenopei recycle possession. Higuain manages to get himself a yard of space on the edge of the area, before forcing Buffon into a comfortable save!
40'
Juve win a corner on the left-hand side, which Rafael is able to race out and punch clear upon delivery. As we approach the dying stages of the half, Juve are looking to slow the tempo of the game somewhat and ensure that they enter the dressing room at half time with their lead intact.
38'
Callejon is caught offside! Play is pulled back, despite the Spaniard appearing to be onside as a through ball set the former Real Madrid man into the clear! The Napoli man cannot believe it, he knows that his movement is often perfect and the linesman has made a poor call there.
37'
Juve are now happy to retain the ball for an extended passage of play. Allegri's men are in no rush whatsoever, before Lichtsteiner steps up a gear from the right-hand side. The Swiss full-back drives into the box, before powering a drive directly at Rafael! The goalkeeper can only concede a corner, which comes to nothing.
35'
Great play from Higuain! The Argentine international receives a ball in to feet, before pivoting quickly and smartly to earn himself a yard of space from Bonucci! As a result, the former Real Madrid man shoots from 20 yards out, but can only drag his effort well wide!
34'
Hamsik whips a free-kick delivery in towards the back post, but Koulibaly is unable to turn an effort towards goal due to intense pressure from Lichtsteiner! Narrowly over ten minutes remains until the interval, with Juve presumably very pleased with their professional performance thus far.
32'
Pirlo shoots from 25 yards out, but the experienced midfielder can only guide a volley well within the reach of Rafael, who smothers with ease. Napoli have started to enjoy more of the ball, with the Old Lady breaking upfield and carving out better chances with more regularity. Higuain is looking a little isolated, it must be said.
30'
Fortunately for the Bianconeri, the Swiss international is quickly back onfield, before playing a one-two with Tevez that Ghoulam reads well and intercepts. The opening half an hour has certainly been competitive, with both Serie A sides enjoying a hatful of half chances.
29'
Pogba tries to switch the play out to the left-hand side for Tevez to receive, but the pass is slightly too heavy and runs out for a throw in. Meanwhile, Lichtsteiner goes down with an injury complaint, after seeming to overstretch slightly while competing with Ghoulam.
27'
Napoli enjoy an extended period of possession, but keep the ball in solely non-threatening areas. Juve are content to cede the ball and territory, as long as Benitez's men aren't permitted any time and space around the penalty area. The Bianconeri are looking comfortable, aside from when Hamsik gets the ball in advanced positions.
25'
This game has had a sense of ebb and flow about it thus far, with both sides taking it in turns to enjoy short spells of pressure. Hamsik manages to dance past a couple of challenges and hook a right-footed effort towards goal from the edge of the area, but the ball zips a couple of yards wide of the post! Buffon was scrambling!
23'
Another good stop from Rafael! Tevez unleashes a low drive with his left foot, which forces the Brazilian goalkeeper to get down smartly to his left-hand side to push the ball behind for a corner! Napoli's goalkeeper keeps them in it!
22'
Good save from Rafael! Pirlo clips a ball forward, which Llorente manages to knock down to his strike partner! Tevez powers a venomous attempt at the Napoli goal, but the goalkeeper manages to parry the ball out of harm's way!
20'
Napoli have looked resurgent in the past five minutes, but still Buffon remains untested in the Juventus' goal. Allegri's men are remaining in organised ranks, with the Partenopei only able to work the ball wide before engaging in percentage football by flighting hopeful crosses into the box.
18'
Good defensive work from Pogba! The Frenchman tracks back well, getting his body across the ball as Higuain looked to break into the Juve penalty area. Callejon delivers a cross towards the back post moments later, but it is far too powerful and sails over the awaiting forehead of De Guzman.
16'
HAMSIK STRIKES THE POST! Juve are holding their shape very well, with forwards and midfielders alike pressing out in turn to shut down passing lanes for Napoli to utilise. Maggio sends a looping pass forward, however, which Chiellini fails to deal with, before the Slovakia international sends a good effort onto the inside of the upright! Buffon was stood dumbfounded, but the ball rebounds back out into the box!
14'
Pirlo almost finds Marchisio with a diagonal ball over the top of Ghoulam, but his compatriot is just unable to stretch enough to bring the pass under his spell. But for a couple of brief forays forward from Benitez's side, Juve have controlled the opening quarter of an hour.
12'
Hamsik blasts wide! Napoli work their way upfield, with Higuain, Callejon and De Guzman combining well, before a pass is set back to the Slovakia international. He shoots from 25 yards, but can only send the ball spiralling into the stand behind Buffon's net.
10'
Pirlo cuts the free kick to the edge of the box for Marchisio to meet. The homegrown midfielder strikes the ball first time, but sees the ball rocket into a ruck of sky blue shirts and clear of the danger zone.
9'
Juve have looked much more composed in the early minutes, with Napoli forced to sit back and do some pressing. Tevez's goal has set Allegri's side up nicely, but they will need a more sizeable cushion to ensure that the Partenopei do not recover. Koulibaly is penalised for catching Lichtsteiner in the face with a stray arm, earning the Old Lady a free kick in a dangerous area.
7'
Llorente cuts in from the right-hand side, before setting a pass backwards to Pirlo, but the experienced midfielder is denied of the opportunity to shoot by his own player, Pogba. Moments later, Marchisio whips in a cross in from the right flank, but Albiol is able to hook a clearance away.
5'
C. Tevez has scored a goal for Juventus!
GOOOOOOOOOOAL! TEVEZ MAKES IT 1-0 TO JUVENTUS! The Napoli defence falls apart, with Albiol and Koulibaly having a huge mix-up at the heart of the back four! The two central defenders challenge for the same ball, leading to the rebound falling to the Argentine striker. He sprints through into the clear, before sliding a finish under Rafael and into the back of the net!
3'
Hamsik is picked out by a near-post corner delivery, but the Napoli captain is only able to steer an attempt a few yards wide of the closest upright. Moments earlier, Napoli claimed for a penalty, as Chiellini controlled a cross with what Higuian believed to be his arm - but the referee nor linesman was interested.
2'
Higuain drives across the face of the Juve penalty area, but Chiellini steps out well to make a brilliantly-timed sliding challenge. Evra then sprints upfield, before trying to pick out Tevez, but a recovering passback from Koulibaly takes a deflection and loops into Rafael's arms.
1'
We are underway in the first half of the Italian Super Cup! Both teams most certainly have something to achieve, with a trophy awaiting the victor at the close of play. The Bianconeri don their customary black and white stripes, while the Partenopei are wearing sky blue.
