Napoli vs Parma Coppa Italia Final 1995
Napoli's history includes four league titles, six Coppe Italia, three Supercoppe Italiane, and one UEFA Cup.
Napoli lost the final on aggregate, 2–3. The match was played during a period when Napoli, following the departure of Diego Maradona in 1991, were beginning to struggle financially, a situation that would eventually lead to relegations and bankruptcy before the club was re-founded in 2004.
