Palermo coach Delio Rossi is delighted for the fans after reaching the Coppa Italia final.

The Rosanero earned a 2-2 draw at AC Milan in the first leg and won 2-1 last night to reach their third Coppa Italia Final, following on from runner-up medals in 1974 and 1979.

"We knew that we were facing a stronger side, so it needed two huge performances and I think over the two legs we were superior to Milan," said the Coach.

"I am happy for our fans, all of Sicily and the South, as we are proving that you can create great football clubs in this area of the country."
