Roma set up a Coppa Italia final with city rivals Lazio as a brace from Mattia Destro helped defeat Inter Milan in an entertaining semi-final second leg at the San Siro.
Holding a 2-1 lead from the first match, Roma went behind to a superb Jonathan goal before former Inter trainee Destro scored twice in 14 second-half minutes to put the tie firmly in Roma's hands.
Vassilis Torosidis hit a wonderful third for the visitors and Ricardo Alvarez rounded out the scoring with an 80th-minute consolation for an Inter side missing several first-choice names.
Roma started brightly, working Samir Handanovic twice in the first five minutes - once when he pawed away Alessandro Florenzi cross-shot and moments later when he read Francesco Totti's free-kick.
