"We are very pleased to have reached the Coppa Italia semi-finals. It is an important trophy for us and we want to win it," Nerazzurri captain Javier Zanetti said on Inter Channel after Thursday's quarter-final victory over Lazio.

"Those who say it's not important say so because they don't have the right attitude or because they have been knocked out. We must progress in every competition we're in the running for, a team like Inter must have this mentality.

"It was a team victory this evening. And I'm also very pleased about the performance of the young Momentè. It was an important game for him and he did very well. I'm also happy for Solari who played an excellent game, and for Toldo who gave the team security."
