It just had to be him.
Juventus forward Gonzalo Higuain scored his seventh Serie A goal of the campaign Saturday against former side Napoli, and while his demure celebration may not be an indication, it was the Argentine's biggest tally thus far.
The 70th-minute finish gave the host a 2-1 advantage after Jose Callejon's goal nullified Leonardo Bonucci's rocket five minutes after the interval.
The Bianconeri wouldn't relinquish the advantage for a second time, however, with Higuain's tally moving the Old Lady five points clear of idle Roma - and seven ahead of Napoli - at the Serie A summit.
