Rome, May 10 (IANS): Moroccan centre-back Medhi Benatia scored two second-half goals as Juventus pounded AC Milan 4-0 here to hoist the Coppa Italia for the fourth consecutive year and the record-extending 13th time in all.
After a goalless first half, Benatia opened the scoring with a header in the 56th minute on Wednesday. The goal was followed by two mistakes within eight minutes from Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
The 19-year-old was the culprit of allowing a drive from Douglas Costa to go through before failing to grab an easy header from Mario Manzukic -- from which Benatia tucked in to get his second goal.
Later in the 76th minute, Nikola Kalinic headed a Juventus corner into his own net as the defending champions ran away with the title.
After the big win on Wednesday, the Turin football giants are also on the verge of clinching their seventh successive Serie A title, needing only one point from their final two matches to be assured of besting second-place Napoli, reports Efe.
