Coppa Italia - Inter reach final

Lazio 0 - 2 Inter

Inter reached their fourth consecutive Italian Cup final after second half goals from Pele and Julio Cruz sealed a 2-0 win at Lazio on Wednesday.

The Serie A leaders prevailed 2-0 on aggregate following last month's goalless first leg despite Lazio dominating for long periods.

Portuguese midfielder Pele slotted home after 52 minutes and Cruz took advantage of a defensive error to score five minutes from time moments after Inter's Marco Materazzi was dismissed for a wild tackle.

Holders Roma, 1-0 up from the first leg, visit Catania on Thursday in their semi-final second leg.
