Dybala stars for Juve in rampant derby victory
Paulo Dybala and Miralem Pjanic starred for Juventus as the Serie A holder cruised to a rampant 4-0 Derby della Mole victory over Torino.
Paulo Dybala continued his scintillating form as his double helped Juventus thrash 10-man rival Torino 4-0 in the first Derby della Mole of the Serie A season.
Juve's mercurial number 10 bagged his first 16 minutes into the encounter at Juventus Stadium, guiding home the opener in typically composed fashion.
With Torino's misery compounded by Daniele Baselli's dismissal midway through the first half, Massimiliano Allegri's men were soon hitting their stride, Miralem Pjanic's exquisite strike doubling their tally prior to the interval.
Alex Sandro was the next to get in on the act with a powerful header early in the second half, before Dybala made it 10 goals in six league matches this season with a stoppage-time strike that put the icing on the cake.
Salvatore Sirigu had tried to keep the scoreline respectable with a string of quality saves, but it was merely a matter of damage limitation as the defending champion continued its perfect start to the latest league campaign.
It is a win that keeps Juve level on points with pacesetter Napoli at the top, and Allegri's focus will now switch to getting his side's UEFA Champions League campaign back on track against Olympiacos on this week.
