Having already won the Serie A title earlier this month, they swept Lazio aside in the Coppa Italia Final this evening at the Stadio Olimpico.
This is the clubâs 10th Coppa Italia victory, but the first time they matched it with the Scudetto since Jose Mourinho got the Treble along with the Champions League in 2010.
