Worth every penny.
Gonzalo Higuain continues to repay the massive €90-million price tag Juventus paid for his services this summer, the Argentine netting a brace in Sunday's 3-1 win over bitter city rival Torino.
His first goal cancelled out Andrea Belotti's opener, and in the 82nd minute, Higuain ensured that the Bianconeri would collect all three points with a simply unstoppable rocket to the bottom corner.
Miralem Pjanic added a late strike to solidify the result, but the day belongs to Higuain, who now has nine Serie A tallies on the campaign.
