Gonzalo Higuain was understandably in an upbeat mood after scoring a second half hat-trick in Juventus' 7-0 mauling of Sassuolo this afternoon.
"Sooner or later, a hat-trick had to come," the Argentine began, "and I'm just delighted."
Higuain has now scored in three consecutive matches, ending a brief spell when goals were hard to come by.
"I was happy even when I wasn't scoring before because the performances were there. I just needed to carry on working hard, I knew the results would eventually come.
"Let's continue in this way," the Bianconeri No.9 concluded, "we have five months of playing at top form ahead of us. We've achieved a great result today and now we must turn our minds immediately to Friday evening."
