Italian Cup: Inter beats Fiorentina 1-0 in cup semis

Football now, and Inter Milan took on Fiorentina in the first leg of their Italian Cup semi-final on Wednesday.

The only goal of the match came after 34 minutes. Mario Balotelli set up his strike partner Diego Milito, and the Argentine, who has hit the net 13 times in Serie A this year since moving from Genoa, converted from close range.

The second leg takes place in Florence in April while in-form Roma host Udinese in the other semi-final first leg on Thursday.
