The Juventus skipper maintains a close connection with his fans, keeping in touch with them and issuing statement to them and he did so once again after German http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684.
Buffon was livid after the victory against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 and at first the reason seemed to elude everyone. The Azzurri captain gave the rationale behind his anger at the end of the match, stating that lapse in concentration had led to a nervy ending to the final
minutes of their match against the Germans.
A http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Federico-Balzaretti-c13451 handball led to a penalty being awarded to the Germans in the 90th minute, which made for a panicked ending to the match. Buffon’s experience has taught him that nervy endings have a tendency for driving momentum the other
way and their hard work for 90 minutes would not have mattered at the end of the day.
However, this time he had a more positive message for all his fans and asked for everyone to find joy in their progress to the finals of the European Championships. Buffon conceded that he was not able to sleep as he was glued to the internet where he witnessed
scenes of happiness and joy of the Italian people following their quarter-final victory over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749.
He dedicated his victory to all the supporters and remarked:
“We are doing it for us, but also for you, who fire me up and take away two hours of every day so I can watch the street celebrations on YouTube.”
The former Parma goalkeeper was truly humbled by the show of support by their fans and mentioned that they would have brought the same amount of respect to the blue jersey as the players do.
He followed by reflecting on an anecdote, and mentioned:
“At these moments I like to remember the banner that I read as a child, when I used to collect the Supertifo fanzine and guard it jealously... It was written by Foggia fans and read: ‘It is better to suffer so we can rejoice than kid ourselves and die.’
Italy’s victory over the Germans sees them face off the Spaniards in the finals of Euro 2012 on Sunday.
