Coppa Italia bracket update: Milan get Roma, Lazio waiting for Inter

Three of the four quarter-final match-ups are now in place after the conclusion of Wednesday evening’s Coppa Italia Round of 16 matches, as Roma have set up a game against Milan in San Siro, while Atalanta will travel to Bologna.

Atalanta were first up on Wednesday night, defeating Serie B outfit Cesena by a 6-1 margin at the Gewiss Stadium. Davide Zappacosta, Charles De Ketelaere, Lazar Samardzic and Marco Brescianini came up with the goals for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side.

Then came Roma, who recorded a 4-1 win over Sampdoria at the Stadio Olimpico thanks to Artem Dovbyk’s brace and individual efforts from Tommaso Baldanzi and Eldor Shomurodov, plus excellent performances from wing-backs Alexis Saelemaekers and Angelino.

After Wednesday night’s matches, there are no longer any Serie B sides left in the competition.

Sitting in 12th place in Serie A, Roma are currently the lowest-ranked team left in the bracket.
