Gonzalo Higuain admitted that Napoli gave Juve their money's worth in the Coppa Italia semi-final first leg but ultimately the Bianconeri's quality showed through.

“It was a very difficult match and Napoli were really good tonight,” the striker began. “They made it hard for us with their pressing game and we struggled to get the ball forward.

“[Massimiliano] Allegri told us to keep calm and it turned out all right in the end. We were patient and showed our strength.

“It was important to score tonight. Now we have a decent lead to take into the second leg. We have a massive three months ahead and we need to keep going as we are and not budge an inch.”
