The Bianconeri goalkeeper helped his side keep the score line at 1-1 against Roma by saving a Francesco Totti penalty kick.
Juventus legendary glove-man, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Francesco-Totti-c13940, took a shot from the spot in the second half but the Italian international successfully
denied the goal.
While talking to the media after the game at Stadio Olimpico, Buffon said:
“It was an important save at a very delicate moment of the game. When you save a penalty there’s also an element of fortune that’s involved, but we also work on these things because when a player needs to play, he’s obliged to improve on everything.”
The Lady Killers are currently on top of the league table with points tied with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775 are closely following the tail with a 2-point difference.
However, Buffon still insists that Scudetto talks are unnecessary at the moment as La Vecchia Signora were in a similar situation last yeat but ended up at the 7th spot.
“We were also up at the top of the League until Christmas last year. In football, a bad month is enough to leave you with a few points and many problems. We’ve played 14 games and it’s early to think of having crossed a line that could separate this present
time from the past,” added the goalkeeper.
Moreover, Buffon believes that they did not deserve to fall behind in the first half as they played a better game than the hosts and created many chances.
Although the first half was one sided with Juve dominating the hosts, the second half was evenly matched between the two sides, according to Buffon.
