The Argentine striker has shown impressive form recently, and his brace inside ten minutes against Tottenham confirms it.

And yet, some criticize Gonzalo Higuain's contribution for club and country.

The Argentinean striker managed to set a UEFA Champions League record with the fastest brace in tournament's history, following his early goals after 2 and eight minutes, respectively.

Higuain's first goal came thanks to a well-placed pass by Pjanic, which he sent to the back of the net with a cheeky right-hand shot.

Later, Higuain transformed a spot kick into his second goal of the evening, earning his place in tournament history while at it.

"Record alert: Gonzalo Higuaín (at eight minutes and seven seconds) has scored the fastest brace in UEFA Champions League history, surpassing Julio Cruz's record against Spartak Moscow (at 8 minutes, 30 seconds) on October 18, 2006."
