Italy’s Matteo Pessina scored twice as Atalanta beat holders Napoli 3-1 on aggregate on Wednesday to book a place in the Italian Cup final.
Pessina’s efforts, both set up by Duvan Zapata, were enough to secure Atalanta a second final in three seasons, after the goalless first leg, where they will face Juventus.
On Tuesday, Juve’s goalless draw with Inter Milan took them to the May 19 final in Rome after winning the first leg 2-1.
“It’s a great satisfaction. We dedicate it to the fans,” Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini said.
“We will think about the final later. For us it’s already a great success. Now we have many important games, we will host Real Madrid.
That will be an event for Bergamo,” he added ahead of hosting the Spanish giants in the Champions League last 16 on February 24.
