Gonzalo Higuain angrily points towards Napoli owner after scoringEPA
On his second return to his former home in a week, he scored twice — but, after his first goal, decided to gesticulate angrily toward San Paolo president, Angelo De Laurentiis and shout: “It’s your fault!”
Higuain ran a gauntlet of hate as Napoli fans turned on him with a vengeance following his summer betrayal.
However, he was quick to — literally — point out his innocence and lay the blame at the feet of the man who sold him.

During the summer, the former Real Madrid striker had fallen out with De Laurentiis over the size of his buy-out clause, insisting it should have been lowered.
But it remained high, in the hope no side would be able to match it.

While many believe Higuain should have shown more loyalty, there are some who felt De Laurentiis should have shown more ambition.
And the Argentina international was making that point to the Napoli fans who once idolised him.
Last season, a final day hat-trick saw him net 36 goals in a Serie A season, which is a modern day record.
