The second semifinals of the Italian Soccer Cup, Juventus Turin-Milan and Naples-Inter Milan, will be played on June 12 and 13, while the final will be on the 17th of the same month at the Olympic stadium in Rome, as reported by Sports Minister Vincenzo Spadafora on Thursday.
“I asked that football could be resumed with the Italian Cup, with the three games played live on television 'Rai'. The two semifinals have been advanced to allow later the development of a rich calendar of events. It will be played on June 12 and 13, with the end on 17 “, said Spadafora in a live broadcast on the social network Facebook.
Thus, after more than three months of forced stoppage due to the coronavirus, Italian football will return with three decisive matches, all behind closed doors, before Series A resumes on June 20. The first to jump onto the pitch, on the 12th, will be Juventus and Milan at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, after the first leg, played in February at San Siro, ended 1-1.
The next day, it will be the Neapolitan-Inter stadium to host the Neapolitan San Paolo stadium, with the southern team winning the first leg 1-0 at San Siro with a great goal from the Spanish Fabián Ruiz. The winners will face the 17th at the Olympic with the possibility of lifting the first trophy of the major European leagues after the coronavirus pandemic.
