Juventus closed in on a second Champions League final in three seasons as struck twice to beat Monaco in the semi-final first leg.
Juventus could play Real Madrid in finals if both teams manage either a win or a draw of any type during the second leg of the semis.
Juventus goals came in both halves as Higuain continued shining in the champions league.
The French hosts started brightly, with Kylian Mbappe heading at Gianluigi Buffon before forcing another low save.
But Higuain ruthlessly finished two fine Dani Alves assists, sweeping the Brazilian’s back heel in on 29 minutes.
Radamel Falcao went close for Monaco after the break before Alves’ measured cross saw Higuain put Juve in control.`
