Juventus vs Lazio Highlights: Copa Italia

Lazio reached the Italian Cup final with a 2-1 win at Turin which completed a 4-2 aggregate semi-final victory over Juventus on Wednesday.

Argentine forward Mauro Zarate curled a splendid right-foot shot into the corner in the 38th minute and Serbian full back Aleksandar Kolarov doubled the lead with a deflected strike in the second half.

Captain Alessandro Del Piero came off the bench to pull one back for the home side, who had substitute Mauro Camoranesi sent off in the closing stages when he protested after being booked.

The exit came in a difficult week for Juventus with the turmoil caused by the racist chants their fans directed at Inter Milan’s Mario Balotelli last weekend.

It left them with little hope of winning silverware this season as they are 10 points behind leaders Inter Milan in joint second in Serie A and speculation about coach Claudio Ranieri’s future is likely to increase.
