The Serie B team had eliminated Roma in the quarterfinals last season and it looked like it might be a repeat when Frank Tsadjout put Cremonese ahead late in the first half.

But Dybala came on after halftime and set up Lukaku's score before converting a penalty five minutes from time.

Roma captain Lorenzo Pellegrini had hit the crossbar midway through the first half.

The derby with Lazio will be played next week, with Lazio having eliminated Genoa last month.

Milan eliminated Cagliari on Tuesday.

On loan from Milan, the 22-year-old De Ketelaere didn't meet expectations upon his arrival in Italy with Milan last season. But he's flourishing on loan at Atalanta this campaign and will now meet the club that owns his contract.
