Juventus will play Frosinone, who eliminated Napoli, in the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup
Juventus came from behind to thrash Salernitana to book their place in the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup.
Chukwubuikem Ikwuemesi gave the visitors, who are bottom of Serie A, a first-minute lead after poor defending.
Fabio Miretti levelled 11 minutes later before Andrea Cambiaso fired hosts Juventus ahead.
Daniele Rugani made it 3-1 and Dylan Bronn scored an own goal, before fantastic strikes from Kenan Yildiz and Timothy Weah turned it into a rout.
Juventus will host Frosinone – who eliminated Napoli – in the last eight of the Coppa Italia, while Fiorentina face Bologna, Lazio will meet city rivals Roma and AC Milan welcome Atalanta.
Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri said: “We reacted well after conceding a goal so quickly and we put on a good match.
“There are still things to improve, but this team is growing. Our goal is always to qualify for the next Champions League.”
The sides meet again on Sunday in Serie A, with Filippo Inzaghi’s Salernitana at home.
