Daniel Passarella, who coached Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain in River Plate, claims that it was his idea to make that frontline.

On the eve of the Champions League semi-final match between Monaco and Juventus, ex-Inter star, Fiorentina and Argentina and former coach Gonzalo Higuain and Radamel Falcao in River Plate Daniel Passarella talked about how he transferred the current striker Juve to the point of attack.

"When I first headed River Plate, our first team played a control match with the" youth team, "- said in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport Passarella.

- I immediately drew attention to the guy who played in the "dozens" position, but when he transferred Gonzalo to the first team, he realized that he was a born center forward. And I was not mistaken. Higuain and Radamel Falcao were my attacking tandem, and it was a pleasure to work with these guys. True, they did not play together for long ".

Now the former teammates are for different teams, and will play against each other in the opposition of Monaco and Juventus to Louis II.
