Higuain returns as Juve replace Napoli at top

GONZALO Higuain returned to scoring ways as champions Juventus regained top spot from misfiring Napoli thanks to a 4-0 rout of outclassed Genoa in Turin on Wednesday. Higuain had failed to find the net in Juve’s past two outings – a scoreless draw with Sevilla in the Champions League and a 2-1 defeat to Inter Milan on Sunday. But the Argentine quashed any doubts about his talents with his fourth goal of the season just after the half hour after Daniele Rugani had given Juve the lead.
