It starts on December 18 with Napoli-Milan, who will take the field at 10:00 PM local time (8:00 PM in Italy). The following day, December 19, Bologna-Inter will decide the second finalist, with the start also set at 10:00 PM local time. The final will be played on December 22 between the two winning teams and will determine the new holder of the trophy. On the regulatory front, there will be no significant changes: in case of a tie at the end of the 90 regular minutes, there will be no extra time, but it will go directly to penalty kicks. The now-standard technological tools are confirmed: VAR, Goal Line Technology, and the SAOT system for semi-automatic offside. Visual innovations, however, include Vardict projected on the big screens and the public announcement of referee decisions after each video review, to ensure transparency and clarity for the spectators.
