Roma through to Coppa Italia final

Roma set up a Coppa Italia final against local rivals Lazio with a 3-1 win over Inter Milan at the San Siro.

Roma have set up a Coppa Italia final against local rivals Lazio with a 3-2 win over Inter Milan at the San Siro.

Two goals from Mattia Destro and a Vasilis Torosidis strike have seen the Giallorossi progress with a 5-3 aggregate victory in the semi-finals.

Inter took the lead on the night with 22 minutes on the clock as Tommaso Rocchi, Ricardo Alvarez and Jonathan all exchanged one-touch passes around the penalty area before the latter slotted in.

However, Roma scored a crucial away goal on 57 minutes when Destro broke the offside trap before dinking the ball over Samir Handanovic.

The visitors then took the lead with 20 minutes left to play through Destro following a quick counter-attack.

Their progress was sealed minutes later as Torosidis burst forward before smashing a powerful into the top corner.

Inter pulled a goal back through Alvarez with five minutes to go, but it was not enough for the Nerazzurri to progress.

Roma will take on Lazio in the final at Stadio Olimpico on May 26.
