The former Italy and AC Milan defender believes the Napoli striker's antics and subsequent suspension has ended the battle for the Scudetto with seven games remaining.
Alessandro Nesta says the Serie A title race is over after Gonzalo Higuain was banned for four games following his dismissal during Napoli's defeat to Udinese on Sunday.
Higuain - who had scored a first-half equalizer - was dismissed after 75 minutes during the 3-1 loss and subsequently banned for four matches after putting his hands on referee Massimiliano Irrati on his way off the pitch.
