Juventus seems to be going great in Italy's Serie B without two of their most important offensive
"weapons": Alessandro Del Piero and David Trezeguet. Once the two aces were kept on the bench by Coach Didier Deschamps, the Turin side managed its most conclusive victory of the season.

After 4 points out of 2 matches so far, Juventus beat Crotone 3-0 away, with goals from Bulgarian striker Bojinov (2) and Boumsong. This way, after only 3 rounds, Juventus reduced the point-deficit to only -12 points.

The match started pretty bad for the visitors. The first half-an-hour was mediocre but the "Old Lady" was always on top of the situation. Juventus took the lead after 30 minutes, through Bojinov. Juventus reminded everyone that their place in not in the Serie B and pushed forward to secure the win before halftime. And the second came only 6 minutes later, thanks to a great shot from Boumsong.

The second half was practically a school-game for the visitors, who decided to seal the win 13 minutes from time. The same Bojinov made it 3-0 and gave Deschamps less headaches for the final minutes of the match. Due to slight injuries from Del Piero and Trezeguet, Zalayeta also began in the starting line-up for the bianconerri.

Juventus is still bottom of the table, due to their "-19 points" sanction after the Claciopoli scandal. They are now -12 and will meet Modena this weekend in Round 4. The match will get under way at Delle Alpi and will be Juventus' first match before home fans, since the 2nd round match (against Vicenza) was played behind closed doors.
