Italy midfielder Daniele De Rossi scored a second-half penalty as Roma beat Internazionale 1-0 to win the Supercoppa.
De Rossi struck in the 78th minute after Nicolas Burdisso brought down Francesco Totti inside the area to hand the Giallorossi victory in the traditional curtain-raiser to the new Serie A season, which gets under way next weekend.
Italian champions Inter went into the encounter at the San Siro looking to join AC Milan as the only team to clinch the title for a third consecutive year.
