Ghana midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah scored his debut goal as Juventus beat nine-man Napoli 4-2 to win the 2012 Italian Super Cup on Saturday in Beijing. 

Edson Cavani opened the scoring for Napoli after 27 minutes but Asamoah struck a sensational effort to restore parity for the Bianconeri ten minutes later. 

The former Udinese star applied a spectacular first-time volley to a Vidal's lofty cross that flew past De Sanctis in the Napoli goal for the equalizer.

The 23-year-old was impressive at the Bird’s Nest Stadium as he went close in the 12th minute mark with a fine display. 

Asamoah evaded a series of challenges with his nifty footwork before unleashing a right-footed attempt wide off the far post.

His compatriot Richmond Boakye-Yiadom was not on the Juventus bench.
