All Gonzalo Higuain needed was an imperious pass from Lionel Messi.
On Saturday, only eight minutes into the Argentina's fixture against Venezuela in the Copa America Centenario's quarter-finals, Higuain finally scored his first goal of the tournament, tucking a phenomenal pass from Messi under Daniel Hernandez to give La Albiceleste a 1-0 lead.
The finish marked Higuain's 28th international goal and his fourth at the Copa America.
