2006 Supercoppa Italiana

The 2006 Supercoppa Italiana was a match contested by the 2005-06 winners Internazionale and the 2005-06 Coppa Italia runners-up Roma. The Coppa Italia runners-up were chosen to play instead of the winners because of the aftermath of the 2006 Serie A match-fixing scandal. As a result, Juventus, the original league winners, were relegated to Serie B and replaced by Internazionale as champions. Since the Coppa Italia winners were also the newly appointed league champions, the Super Cup spot was given to the runners-up of the Coppa Italia, A.S. Roma. The match resulted in a 4-3 win for Internazionale after extra time.^[1]
