FIFA award Sweden's OG to HIGUAIN

In an article reviewing Argentina's 3-2 win against Sweden, FIFA has awarded Argentina's first goal to Gonzalo HIGUAIN.

Depending on who you ask, Argentina's first goal against Sweden is given as a LUSTIG own goal. However, FIFA.com is giving the goal to Gonzalo HIGUAIN. In this article, FIFA wrote the following:

"Argentina were 3-1 up by the break courtesy of two strikes from Gonzalo Higuain and one from Sergio Aguero while Jonas Olsson was on target for the Swedes."

In the Argentine media (Canchallena and Ole among others), they have also given the goal to HIGUAIN. Giving the goal to HIGUAIN will mean he now has 18 goals in 31 matches for Argentina, instead of 17 goals.

its a strange systm as would the shot have gone in without the deflection-no as it looked like a cross to the middle not a shot at goal.
to me if it takes a big deflection it should be an own goal.
