Juventus vs. Inter: The Italian Supercup [P/R]

[SB9Dragon]

Italian Supercup date set
Friday 5 August, 2005

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Italian Supercup between Juventus and Inter will be played at the Stadio Delle Alpi on August 20, announced the FIGC today.

This trophy is the Italian version of the Charity Shield and every year kicks off the new season with a challenge between the Scudetto holders and the Coppa Italia winners.


Juventus conquered the title and the Nerazzurri lifted the Coppa in May, but their record in this competition differs wildly. Inter have only ever won one Supercoppa, while the Bianconeri have already triumphed four times.


The game is traditionally played in the home stadium of the Scudetto winners, so the Delle Alpi will host on August 20 with a 9pm local time kick-off – 8pm in the UK.


This match could well represent the Inter debut of new signing Luis Figo, as he was not on the list of players eligible for the Champions' League preliminary round.

What a useless thread.

One: this could've been posted in the Serie A thread which I'm sure has already happened by know. Two: this match is in 15 ******* days. Three: Only an Inter-fan would value something like the Italian Supercup.

Its a interesting match, enough for making a new thread

Usually I would have supported Inter for this match, cause I dont like Juve very much ( ); now that they are Real Madrid 2, with much more reasons.

 

[ForzaNerrazurri]

Winning this will surely give us a huge morale boost going into the new season. Also be nice to see everyone play in a more "serious" match. Can't wait!

 

[ShAnDo]

Hope they will show it here in Chile.. :X

 

[bianconeri6]

i agree with what forzanerazzurri said about seeing them play a serious match.
it'll be fun to watch to say the least as inter are the challengers this year, in my eyes, so........

but sadly i will not get to watch it most likely

 

[djgperu1]

Figo will score and Inter will win 1-0

 

[Moratti1]

This is like the community shield and is a serious match.... Of course there are many more important trophies. This is a nice way to begin the season... More so this is a Juve vs Inter rivalry matchup than it is the supercup.

 

[Internazionale]

I'll see this match. It's about time to see the debut Inter players like Walter Samuel, Luis Figo, David Pizarro, & Santiago Solari in an official match like this. I hope Inter can win the 2nd Italian Super Cup.

 

[$teauA]

Hopefully Mutu will play in the starting line-up .
