Gonzalo Higuain hits hat trick for Juventus; Napoli stay top; Milan held
0
Juventus scored early and often against Sassuolo, hitting the Neroverdi for seven to leapfrog Napoli into first for the time being.
Gonzalo Higuain scored a second-half hat-trick as Juventus routed Sassuolo 7-0 to keep the pressure on Napoli in the Serie A title battle.
Juve were already four goals to the good at half-time, Sami Khedira's brace sandwiched by strikes from Alex Sandro and Miralem Pjanic.
And Higuain took centre stage after the interval, scoring in the 63rd, 74th and 83rd minutes to give the scoreline an emphatic look.
Leaders Napoli did not slip up in the evening kick-off however, winning 2-0 at rock-bottom Benevento...
