And it's eight!
Juventus beat Milan 1-0, with the decisive goal coming from Cristiano Ronaldo, which saw the Bianconeri lift their eighth Italian Super Cup at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium.
Here are five stats behind Juve's win:
Yesterday's match saw both teams facing each other with the possibility of becoming the side with the most Italian Super Cup wins in history. Prior to the final whistle, both Juventus and Milan were on seven Super Cup titles a-piece.
With the win in Jeddah, Juventus have now won the Italian Super Cup eight times, more than any other team.
The number eight returns... with the goals against the Rossoneri. After yesterday's 61st minute goal, it's now eight consecutive games in all competitions, in which Juve has scored past Milan.
The number eight is back yet again! Following Cristiano Ronaldo's goal on the hour mark, it's now eight goals in seven finals that Ronaldo has scored in over his career.
Juventus have now scored in all 27 games this season in all competitions, totalling 50 goals.
Milan have now failed to score in their last three games against Juventus in all competitions, following last night's 1-0 win, a 2-0 win away a San Siro earlier in the season and last season's 4-0 win in the Coppa Italia final.
100° presenza in Serie A per Wojciech Szczesny. Festeggiata come meglio non avrebbe potuto: parando un calcio di rigore decisivo.
