Ahead of the Derby della Capitale in the Coppa Italia quarter-final, fans of Lazio and AS Roma got involved in a violent clash as both sets of fans launched flares at each other in the stands.

This is the second meeting between the two rivals in the ongoing season. They had earlier met in a Serie A clash on November 12 which ended in a goalless draw.

I Biancocelesti took the lead through Mattia Zaccagni's striker from the penalty spot in the 51st minute and will now aim to hold on to their lead to progress to the semi-final of the competition.
