Inter secured the top spot in Group A with a 3-1 victory against Lazio . Elsewhere, Juventus and Roma also sealed their places in the semi-finals with crucial wins in the final round of fixtures in the group stage.
The three teams join Sassuolo , who had already booked their semi-final berth prior to match-day three.
