Juventus captain Gianluigi Buffon has spoken of his disappointment following his side's defeat in the Italian Super Cup against Napoli.

The Bianconeri were twice pegged back as the match finished in a 2-2 draw, before they were beaten 6-5 in a penalty shootout.

"These things can happen. Unfortunately it happened to me, to us," Buffon told Rai Sport.

"Above all we are disappointed because we had three match points to win it clearly – one in extra time and two in the shoot-out – and didn't do it. Compliments to Napoli who achieved this remarkable comeback from a very difficult position.

"When we took the lead 12 minutes from the end, you think more about not running risks, especially as energy and sharpness are not optimal. Despite that, we weren't focused enough to the end, as the goal for 2-2 is one a team that has to win cannot concede."

Juventus had won the previous two Super Cup finals and have won the trophy a record six times.
