AC Milan 0 Juventus 2: Higuain-inspired champions go joint-top as Montella's men suffer again

A landmark brace from Gonzalo Higuain secured a deserved victory for Juventus at struggling AC Milan on Saturday.

Gonzalo Higuain scored his 100th Serie A goal as Juventus claimed a 2-0 win at San Siro to move joint-top with Napoli and ramp up the pressure on AC Milan boss Vincenzo Montella.

The Argentine striker found the back of the net once in each half to take his league tally to 101 and consign Milan to a fourth consecutive home game in all competitions without a victory.

If a miserable run at San Siro does not do for head coach Montella, it may be the Rossoneri's poor record against top-six sides this season that costs him his job - Juve followed Lazio, Roma and Inter in making light work of big-spending Milan.
