Juve thump Palermo

Juventus went second in Serie A after a 5-0 demolition of Palermo on Sunday.

Serie A’s top scorer David Trezeguet bagged his 11th of the season when he hooked in Nicola Legrottaglie’s knock back before Vincenzo Iaquinta scored at the second attempt on 41 minutes.

Substitute Alessandro Del Piero scored with a trademark second half freekick and a stoppage time penalty either side of Marco Marchionni’s strike.

Leaders Inter Milan are three clear after beating Atalanta 2-1 on Saturday when AS Roma in third won 1-0 at Genoa.

On Saturday, back-up strikers Julio Cruz and David Suazo scored a goal apiece as champions Inter.

AC Milan scraped a 2-1 victory at Cagliari on Sunday as a stunning Andrea Pirlo free-kick five minutes from time stole the points.

Milan were out of sorts despite Brazil star Ronaldo making his first appearance of the season and could easily have lost the match.

Instead they rose to ninth in the Serie A table and closed the gap on city rivals Inter Milan at the top to 11 points.
