MILAN — Edinson Cavani was again the star of the show as he helped Napoli to a 2-0 victory over Siena on Wednesday and an Italian Cup final against Juventus.

Napoli took the lead in the 10th minute when, under pressure from Cavani, Siena captain Simone Vergassola fired into his own net. Cavani deservedly doubled Napoli's advantage shortly after the half hour mark following a swift counterattack, started and finished by the Uruguayan.

Cavani scored two late goals to secure his side a 2-2 draw at Udinese at the weekend and take his league tally for the season to 18.
