Gonzalo Higuain

[DrPepper]

No wonder Real Madrid went on to win the Champions League once they got rid of the two biggest big match chokers in world football - Özil and Higuain.

WC final he kept missing the target
Copa final he kept missing the target

what's wrong with him,. Did real madrid tell him to do this

 

[Co0ter]

Why he always plays over Tevez for argentina is a mystery to me. A choke artist if I've ever seen one.

 

[JamDav1982]

Burn in hell.

You sound sane......

He missed a pen. These things happen.

The team as a whole were not good enough to win and pens are a bit of a lottery from there.

 

[Chong Li]

Napoli value him at SIXTY MILLION EUROS

 

[damunk]

He missed an open net in the WC final
He missed an open net in the copa final.

So not just a penalty miss,

All he had to do what get the balls on target towards goal and they would have been double WC and copa champions.

 

[Devils]

So he botched the best opportunity that Argentina had in the WC final and essentially cost them win. He missed the penalty that cost Napoli a CL final spot. And now he missed a Argentina's best chance chance in the final minute of regulation time and a penalty in the shootout to which basically cost Argentina the Copa.

Higuain is a malignancy. If he had any honour, he would retire and save himself from anymore disgrace.

 

[Flavia]

I blame Tata for choosing him to play and take the penalty, after all that has happened.

 

[JamDav1982]

Total joke trying to blame this defeat on Higuain.

Argentina were just not good enough AS A TEAM and going to penalties is a lottery.

 

[DonAK]

You know, I feel bad for him too. He already seem mentally fragile and after this....... Must be incredibly hard.

I can't believe he was put on 2nd in the penalty list.

 

[Ini8]

I blame Tata. Higuain shouldn't even have entered the game IMO. With the way the game was flowing, it suited Tevez better.

 

[Alarcón]

he is a joke

 

[Alik]

The funny bit was him skying the shot.

At least hit it safe.

 

[Morten]

Still, it must be terrible to be Higuain right now, he wasted the biggest chance you could get in the world cup final. Wasted a big chance in this final, and blasted the penalty Ramos-style in this final. Ultimately, its his own fault, but i wouldnt like to be in his shoes now.

 

[ThwiX]

And to think some people wanted this world-class choker here last summer instead of Suarez...
