ROME — Lazio beat bitter city rival Roma 1-0 to win the Italian Cup Sunday and qualify for next season's Europa League. In the first-ever cup final between the Roman neighbors there was more riding on it than simple silverware. Both clubs had finished outside the European places in Serie A, but Senad Lulic's goal 20 minutes from time means the blue half of the city will enjoy European trips next season. Benitez's reign ends Far away from the jeering supporters at London's Stamford Bridge, Rafa Benitez completed his brief but productive reign at Chelsea with a 5-3 loss to Manchester City in a season-ending friendly Saturday night. In a match less physical than many training sessions, Samir Nasri scored twice for City and Ramires had two goals for Chelsea. City built a 2-0 lead on goals by Gareth Barry in the third minute and Nasri in the 29th. Ramires scored for Chelsea in the 46th and 69th minutes around James Milner's Rodwell's goal for City in the 55th. Nasri made it 4-2 in the 74th, Juan Mata curled in a free kick for Chelsea eight minutes later, and Edin Dzeko bounced a 30-yard shot past Petr Cech in the 84th. Celtic wins Scottish Cup In Glasgow, Celtic completed the league and cup double as it swept to a 3-0 victory over Hibernian in the Scottish Cup final at Hampden Park Sunday. Neil Lennon's Scottish champion raced into a two-goal lead in the first half thanks to Gary Hooper's brace and Joe Ledley netted a late third. Utrecht clinches Europa berth Utrecht clinched a Europa League berth Sunday, despite a 2-1 home defeat in the second leg of their Dutch league playoff against Twente Enschede. Utrecht won 3-2 on aggregate after taking the first leg 2-0. Twente failed to qualify for European football for the first time since 2005. — Agencies
