Inter books semi-final against rival
Inter cruised into the Coppa Italia semi-final with a 2-0 victory at home to Lazio, with Marko Arnautovic producing the moment of the match with a brilliant goal.
Arnautovic's headline-grabber came six minutes before half-time as he hit a delightful volley from a corner that had been headed clear by Mattia Zaccagni.
It was an unstoppable effort that flew in to get Simone Inzaghi's side up and running in the quarter-final.
Both sides went in for the break with that goal separating them, while Lazio came out for the second half pressing for an equaliser.
Gustav Isaksen nearly got the goal it was after just before the hour, though goalkeeper Josep Martinez was able to keep his effort out with his feet from a tight angle.
After that, Inter got the second goal that made things secure. Hakan Calhanoglu netted in the 77th minute from the penalty spot, sending goalkeeper Christos Mandas the wrong way after Samuel Gigot had fouled Joaquin Correa.
That is how the game finished, with Inter booking a two-legged semi-final clash with city rival AC Milan in April. The other semi-final will be between Bologna and Juventus or Empoli.
