| Mazzarri excited by Coppa chance |

Sampdoria tactician Walter Mazzarri can't wait for next week's Coppa Italia Final against Lazio.
Doria have had a mixed season and have disappointed in Serie A, but they have the chance to secure a trophy in a one-off finale at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
The Blucerchiati have won the Coppa Italia four times in their history with their last triumph in 1994.
“It will be a massive Final for us in Rome,” Mazzarri told the Corriere dello Sport.
“Despite what people have been saying I don't think the game will be decided by the strikers.
“Antonio Cassano, Giampaolo Pazzini, Mauro Zarate and Goran Pandev are the names that will attract the fans and the media, but it will be the best team unit that wins.”
There have been suggestions that Mazzarri may leave Marassi at the end of the current campaign.
“I have a contract that ties me to Sampdoria,” the ex-Reggina boss stressed.
“I have no intention of thinking about anything else at the moment.”
