Como lead the way despite Coppa Italia final miss 🤩 | OneFootball

Como stood on the verge of reaching their first-ever Coppa Italia final.

Under Cesc Fàbregas, the club has made incredible strides and are already on course to secure a Europa League place before Tuesday's semi-final clash with Inter.

The Lariani raced into a two-goal lead at San Siro as the prospect of Serie A's champions-elect being dumped out of the cup became a genuine possibility.

Martin Baturina opened the scoring against the Nerazzurri to become the joint-highest scoring Serie A midfielder in all competitions so far this season.

But the visitors stepped it up in the second half as Lucas Da Cunha doubled their advantage after being teed up by Nico Paz, who had won possession from deep.

The Argentine now leads the way in the Italian top flight for the most goal involvements since the beginning of the previous campaign after his latest assist.

Unfortunately for Como, the hosts rallied to overturn their deficit in 20 minutes to book their place in next month's showpiece.

There's still definitely something in the water in Italy's most picturesque region!
