Rocchi dedicates Coppa to Lotito
Thursday 14 May, 2009

Lazio striker Tommaso Rocchi has dedicated his side's Coppa Italia victory to the club's President Claudio Lotito.

The Biancocelesti edged out Sampdoria 7-6 on penalties to lift the Coppa for the fifth time in their history.

“We have had difficult moment and we have overcome them,” said Rocchi, who actually missed his spot kick.

“We also won because our President looked to win a trophy. We dedicate it to him. We also would like to apologise to our fans for the difficulties that we have had in the championship.”

Lazio have endured a mercurial season in Serie A and currently lie 10th in the table with three games remaining.
