District with cup in Italy? I'm excited (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

municipality

'district' is the definition.
(municipality is a kind of district)

'cup in italy? i'm excited' is the wordplay.
'excited' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cup'+'in'+'italy'+'im'='cupinitalyim'
'cupinitalyim' with letters rearranged gives 'MUNICIPALITY'.

'with' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
