ROME: Juventus played out a goalless draw against Inter Milan in the return leg of the Coppa Italia semi-finals, and it was enough for the Bianconeri to qualify for the final.

Juventus won 2-1 away to Inter in the first leg, and thus a draw on Tuesday was enough to help them secure a final spot, reports Xinhua news agency.

Inter had more shots at goal, but it was Juve that created the best chance in the 64th minute when Weston McKennie's through ball released Cristiano Ronaldo, but his attempt was denied by Samir Handanovic at the near post.

"We deserved it having taken on a great team like Inter," Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo said.

"In such important matches our team is unlikely to make mistakes, they all played a great match. We changed something on a tactical level and they did well, we had the clearest opportunities." (IANS)
