FIRST ACT - Juventus have won five of their last six first-leg semi-final ties in the Coppa Italia.
SHUT OUT - In keeping Fiorentina goalless at home in the cup for the first time since December 2015, Juventus collected a fifth clean sheet from the last seven Italian Cup semi-finals.
PERSONAL SAVINGS - Mattia Perin made six saves against the Viola, his most in a single game for Juventus, considering all competitions.
AGE MATTERS - Against Fiorentina, Juve fielded a starting XI with an average age of 25 years and 56 days, the youngest for the Bianconeri in all competitions since the start of the last decade.
PATIENCE PAY-OFF - Lorenzo Venuti’s stoppage-time goal was only the third own goal in this season’s Italian Cup in 2022. One of the other two was also in Juve’s favour, when Sassuolo’s Tressoldi put through his own net in the final minute of the quarter-final.
