Sampdoria came from behind to record their biggest win of the season and move five points clear of the relegation zone with a resounding 5-1 victory over Brescia in Serie A on Sunday.

Fabio Quagliarella extended the home side's advantage from the penalty spot with 21 minutes remaining, before substitute Gianluca Caprari headed in a fourth and Quagliarella's injury time lob completed the rout.
Sampdoria are in 16th place with 19 points, while a disappointing display from Brescia leaves them second-bottom on 14 points.
Giuseppe Iachini earned his first win as Fiorentina coach in his second game in charge after a late German Pezzella header clinched a 1-0 win over bottom club SPAL to lift the 14th-placed hosts up to 21 points.
Alex Berenguer's early strike was enough to give Torino a 1-0 win at home to Bologna and take Walter Mazzari's side above AC Milan, Napoli and Parma into seventh place on 27 points.
In the early kick-off, Udinese recorded a third consecutive win with a 3-0 victory over Sassuolo, thanks to goals from Stefano Okaka, Ken Sema and Rodrigo De Paul.
