I think a good way to do it is, in the controller :

// first generate the menu structure

 // you may want to do the following in a loop for all your menu items
if ($this->get('router')->generate('some-route') === $this-
>get('request')->getRequestUri() ){
      // highlight the link of this route
}

Hope it helped
