Albion were 4-2 winners over Italian giants Juventus in their second Premier League International Cup fixture on Wednesday evening.
Jack Bray’s double, alongside an own-goal and substitute Rio Parmer’s late strike, helped Leigh Downing’s team secure three Group B points at The Hawthorns - despite two second-half away consolations.
Juventus started well and enjoyed a strong spell midway through the period - yet decent Luca Amaradio, Pugno and Marco Tiozzo attempts could not trouble Brian Okonkwo.
Watched on by first-team boss Ryan Mason - the young Baggies soon grew into the game and found an opener via a fortuitous own-goal. Visiting defender Bruno Martinez’s attempted back pass caught out the goalkeeper, leaving the ball to roll home.
However, Albion’s second was quite the opposite. Evan Humphries handed Bray possession down the left, and he beat a few defenders before firing a superb, low near-post finish past Simone Scaglia for 2-0.
And Bray picked up where he left off straight after the break, scoring again courtesy of a very clever dink.
Juventus did pull one back when Pugno nodded in 20 minutes from time, and they then grabbed another in stoppage time, which momentarily set-up a nervy final period.
But Parmar’s close-range effort with effectively the last kick ensured Albion claimed a memorable victory under the lights in B71.
