Gonzalo HIGUAIN nets for Juventus, MESSI, DI MARIA, more

Gonzalo HIGUAIN netted for Juventus while Lionel MESSI, Angel DI MARIA and Emiliano SALA all scored as well.

The race at the top of the Serie A standings is getting tighter and tighter. HIGUAIN reached double digits as he scored his 10th Serie A goal in 21 matches. A close ranger header added to the old lady’s lead as they picked up a 2-0 win against Chievo.

Lionel MESSI continues to score when he feels like it. Barcelona fell behind to a Deportivo Alaves goal in the first half and their undefeated La Liga streak looked to have been coming to an end. Luis SUAREZ equalised in the second half for the Catalan club and it took a Lionel MESSI free kick (his 36th of his career) to secure the 2-1 win.

Angel DI MARIA’s scoring form has carried over once more as he scored the third in PSG’s 4-0 win against Montpellier.

Still in France, Emiliano SALA scored goal number eight of the season for himself as Nantes picked up a 3-0 win against Guingamp.

Augusto FERNANDEZ could soon be heading to China.

Javier MASCHERANO could soon have some company in China. According to reports, Augusto FERNANDEZ of Atletico Madrid could very well end up joining Chinese club Beijing Renhe. The midfielder has been left out of Diego SIMEONE’s last three match squads and per El Confidencial, the player has already told the Atletico dressing room that he will be leaving and joining Beijing Renhe.

Talks regarding the move reportedly started weeks ago and with very little playing time and now at 31 years old, this could be Augusto’s last move.

The player joined SIMEONE’s team from Celta Vigo back in January 2016, however, a big ligament injury saw him out of action for a lengthy period of time. Fellow Argentinian Luciano VIETTO already left the club earlier this month as he went on loan to Valencia.
