A double from Riccardo Bocalon has fired little Alessandria into the Coppa Italia semifinals.

Alessandria will now face Inter Milan after beating Spezia.

“We've realised a dream," Bocalon told Rai after the final whistle.

“We're in the semi-finals and we don't want to stop. The priority is still the League, but we were coming off a bad performance [losing 3-0 at FeralpiSalò] and wanted to make up for it at all costs.

“We always believed, and just tried to play as we know we can. This win is dedicated to our fans.

“That's the beauty of football, it always give you a chance to bounce back.

“On Saturday we lost badly in Salò, now we're in the Coppa Italia semi-finals."
