AC Milan hasn’t achieved much this season — except when playing city rival Inter Milan, Associated Press reported.
Milan ruined Inter’s bid for a treble and advanced to the Italian Cup final with a 3-0 derby win Wednesday courtesy of two goals from Luka Jovic.
It was Milan’s third win over Inter this season, having also beaten the Nerazzurri in the Italian Super Cup final in January.
“It was a very important game for us. As you know we are not that good in Serie A. We had to show the quality today. We had to show the character,” Jovic said. “And we showed it and we are going to Rome.”
And if Milan can win another trophy, coach Sergio Conceicao might have a chance at keeping his job — despite the seven-time European champion sitting ninth in Serie A, according to Associated Press.
Winning the Italian Cup — which carries a Europa League berth — could be Milan’s only route to a spot in continental play for next season.
