âWe really did give everything. Unfortunately what weâre left with is defeat and in my view nothing will remain of all the good things we did,â the Juventus defender told Rai Sport while fighting back sobs.
âAll that remains is disappointment and in a few years nobody will remember anything about this Nazionale that truly gave everything.
âWe really enjoyed our time together and wanted it to continue. Weâre sad.â
Iâve watched it back a couple of times and agree if he didnt guess right etcâŚhowever he did and he was very slow getting to the floor, something which keepers should make 1st priority for a penalty (Nuer for example for the preceding pen, although a poor strike he covered the ground of the side he guessed, immediately). The final pen wasnt the best, it did have some power behind it though and the bounce was the luck really, although i think that was stoppable if he got down to the floor quick enough. Penalties as we know is a cruel way to go and the advantage is always with the strikers not the keepers. there was some shocking pens taken which was out of Buffonâs hands tbf. He is a legend, will he stay for the WC?
