Watch: Higuain nets brace to move level with Dzeko in scoring race
STRINGER / Reuters
Gonzalo Higuain is doing everything in his power to justify that price tag.
The Juventus striker hit the back of the net twice in Sunday's match against Cagliari, ensuring a 2-0 victory in a potentially tricky away fixture.
His first tally (above) came via a deft dink over the goalkeeper; his second goal, meanwhile, moved Higuain level with Roma's Edin Dzeko, the two men now together atop the scoring table with 18 Serie A tallies apiece.
