Serie A: Joe Hart's Torino thrash Palermo 4-1 to pick up a third straight victory

England goalkeeper Joe Hart helped Torino come from behind to pick up their third win on the bounce with a 4-1 Serie A victory over Palermo.

Ivaylo Chochev put the hosts ahead after just five minutes when he headed Alessandro Diamanti's fine cross from the right past Hart.

But two goals from Adem Ljajic helped Torino recover and set them on their way to an impressive victory.

Palermo's lead lasted just 20 minutes before Ljajic found room outside the area and fired into the corner.

He then struck again with a curling effort into the far corner to give Torino the lead.

Marco Benassi finished off a counter-attack in first-half stoppage time to give Torino a two-goal cushion heading into the break.

The visitors completed the scoring after the break with Daniele Baselli tapping in at the far post to cap a comfortable win.
