Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri refuses to panic after their Coppa Italia quarterfinal defeat to Juventus.

Gleison Bremer scored the only goal of the tie for Juventus on the night.

"I am disappointed by the result, but not the performance. We were just lacking something in the final third, but we largely allowed Juve very little and were in control," Sarri told Sport Mediaset.

“We just failed to make our mark when it came to filling the box, taking the initiative and breaking through, as there were very few spaces with Juventus sitting deep to wait for us. We needed that initiative to find a way through.

“It's disappointing to go out, but we are not disappointed by the performance. Unfortunately, Ciro's injury put us in a situation where these lads have played a lot throughout January, so perhaps they lost a bit of sharpness when playing so often.

“We play every three or four days and have basically not trained in a month. Ciro's return will therefore help us to rotate a bit more."
