I still dont know how he stopped that.

the shot came from such a short distance.
Buffon is fuccking awesome, but at same time, motherfuccker is very lucky too. There are more than 10 saves, when is touches a little bit then the ball hits the post and doesn't go in. He is always at right time and right place.

Part experience, part luck. He was definitely surprised.
It's also positioning. For example, every time you see a goalie leap for a ball, just miss it, and it clangs off the post means the goalie was positioning himself exactly where he needed to be and not an inch further -- so as not to expose his other side.

Gigi saw the lane close down between his defenders and knew he had to get big in the middle.

The del piero threads should be moved to the legends section i think. If we want to keep uniformity that is.

And i see nothing wrong with it, He is the legend after all.
