JAKARTA - Juventus won an important victory over Lazio in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, Friday, February 3, early morning WIB. Juventus' decisive goal was recorded by Brazilian defender Gleison Bremer in the 44th minute.

This victory not only led La Vecchia parrya to the semifinals, but brought them back to winning ways.

In the last two games, Juventus have swallowed an unsatisfactory result. After being held to a 3-3 draw at Atalanta in Serie A, the Turin-based team then lost 0-2 in the same event.

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri praised the fighting spirit of his players.

"Tonight the team performed well, especially in the first half, because Lazio had more possession of the ball after halftime, but we just let them have a little chance," Allegri said as reported by Antara via Football Italia.

"The most important thing is mental attitude, which obviously we don't have against Monza. We conceded goals that we should have avoided, and that made us reflect."

"They are adults, they are responsible and know that passion is as important as tactics and technique. We are organized, play with patience, and withstand Lazio's strong pressure tonight."

The victory made Juventus even more excited to have the rest of Serie A's season after they were sentenced to a 15-point deduction.

"We came from defeat to Monza, it wasn't an easy situation, when we held the lead we felt more confident. Now we have laid the good foundations to get back on track in the Italian League as well," said the former AC Milan coach.

In the semifinals later, Juventus will face Inter Milan. This is the repeat of last season's Italian Cup final where Inter came out victorious.

But before that, Juventus will return to compete on Tuesday, February 7, hosting Salernitana in Serie A.
