Afterwards, Napoli issued a statement condemning Allegri for clashing with Oriali.

It read: “SSC Napoli firmly condemns the behavior of AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri, who, during the Italian Super Cup semi-final, in the presence of dozens of people pitchside and on live television, repeatedly and severely insulted Gabriele Oriali with offensive language.

“We hope this completely out of control attack does not go unnoticed, especially since, with 33 cameras involved in the event’s production, it is impossible not to witness what happened.”

Allegri and Oriali exchanged barbs from the opposing benches at the end of the tie after a ruck had been sparked between the players.

Napoli advanced to the final, in which they will meet either Inter Milan or Bologna.

The two sides face off in the other Riyadh semi-final this evening.
