12/23/2001. Juventus found the right gears on Sunday afternoon to dismiss a weak Brescia 4-0. Missing Roberto Baggio and playmaker Guardiola, Carlo Mazzone's men were simply outclassed and could only muster a threat early on. 


Juve silenced the early rondinelle pressure with David Trezeguet heading home a Lilian Thuram's cross despite attention from marker Alessandro Calori. Just before the break the bianconeri doubled their lead with a Pavel Nedved pass allowing Trezeguet to split the defence and set up Alessandro Del Piero who neatly slotted past keeper Luca Castellazzi.


In the second half, Brescia were simply no match for the marauding Juve and in the 55th minute the game was killed by more good work from Nedved. The Czech engine's corner from the left was headed home by veteran Ciro Ferrara and with 21 minutes to go, Edgar Davids chimed in with an explosive free-kick from range.
