Bremer heads Juventus into Coppa Italia semi-finals

Roma, Feb 3 (BNA): Gleeson Bremer scored the winning goal as Juventus beat Lazio 1-0 on Thursday to reach the Coppa Italia semi-finals.

The hosts got a deserved breakthrough just before half-time when Bremer timed perfectly in the penalty area to connect with a Filip Kostic cross and head the ball home.

Both teams struggled to create chances for most of the match but Juventus largely dictated the pace, reports Reuters.

Lazio lacked the intensity to challenge Juventus’ disciplined defense and did not seriously threaten for an equaliser.

Coach Massimiliano Allegri’s team will face Inter Milan in the semi-finals, back and forth, after defeating Atalanta 1-0.

Cremonese, who knocked out Roma, will play Fiorentina in the other quarter-final match.
