Montolivo insists Fiorentina can handle Inter in Coppa Italia

Fiorentina midfielder Riccardo Montolivo says they'll be ready for Inter Milan in Tuesday's Coppa Italia semifinal.

The two clubs drew 2-2 on Saturday night in the league.

"Next week is going to be a very important game and we cannot concede two goals the way we did here," said Montolivo.

"We went on to the field in order win, we gave it our all and could've won but also lost. At the end of the day, I think the draw is the right result.

"We suffered under the pressure of Inter's tactics, as we were afraid of their stars who played between the lines.

"Over time we also struggled with tiredness, but fortunately we managed to equalise."
