Inter vs. Palermo: We can still finish third – Miranda

A repeat of Inter's midweek Coppa Italia performance against Juventus will be enough to beat Palermo, according to Miranda.

Inter defender Miranda has called for his team-mates to build on their 3-0 Coppa Italia win over Juventus by beating Palermo in Serie A on Sunday.

After a 3-0 defeat in the first leg in Turin, two goals from Marcelo Brozovic and one from Ivan Perisic were enough to level the tie, but Inter were left disappointed following a 5-3 penalty shoot-out defeat that put them out of the competition.

Despite their cup exit, Miranda felt Inter showed the kind of form that could help them end a run of just three wins in their last 11 games in Serie A – a sequence that has left them in fifth place, 13 points behind leaders Juve.
