Outside90’s Joshua Scarcella casts an eye over the five best individual performances coming from Matchday 5 of the Serie A.
Gonzalo Higuain (Napoli vs Juventus)
After being the x-factor during the match against Lazio, and then not being quite able to get the job done against Carpi, Higuain put in a man of the match performance at home against the current champions.
He played the provider for Lorenzo Insigne to make the score 1-0, slipping a one-two pass behind the Juventus defense. Then, the striker got on the scoresheet himself, intercepting a poor cross-field pass by Hernanes, and then doing enough to get the shot past Gianluigi Buffon.
