Buffon reaches 300 clean sheets | Football Italia
Last night’s 4-0 win over Milan in the Coppa Italia final was Gianluigi Buffon’s 300th clean sheet in a Juventus shirt.
The Bianconeri didn’t concede a single goal throughout the tournament, and the 40-year-old was between the posts as they picked up the trophy last night.
It’s the fourth triumph in a row for the Old Lady, but the game also represented a personal milestone for Buffon.
According to Tuttosport, last night’s clean sheet was Buffon’s 300th for Juve, in his 655th appearance.
That means the veteran has kept a clean sheet in just under 46 per cent of his matches for Juventus across all competitions.
Buffon already holds several records, including longest time without conceding a Serie A goal [974 minutes], most consecutive Serie A clean sheets [10] and most clean sheets in a Serie A season [21 in 2011–12 and 2015–16].

UEFA ban ruins Buffon swansong? | Football Italia
Gianluigi Buffon risks missing out on his Italy swansong after he was charged by UEFA over comments about referee Michael Oliver.
The Juventus goalkeeper was charged with breaching UEFA’s “general principles of conduct” for his statements following the Champions League semi-final exit to Real Madrid.
The verdict is expected on May 31, but La Gazzetta dello Sport is concerned this could spill over into his international career.
As the season will be over by then at club level and Buffon is expected to hang up his gloves, a Champions League ban would make no real difference in this case.
The concern is that UEFA will instead impose a ban over a period of time, as that would cover Italy’s friendly games.
Buffon had been ready to hang up his Azzurri gloves in a match against the Netherlands on June 4, which was organised at Turin’s Juventus Stadium to act as his swansong.

Argh fug these uefa feminist-like support of their referees. Referees are a joke these days. No matter what crap decisions they make, their organisation runs to protect them.
Fail to award an obvious penalty can be justified as 'wasn't 100% sure'
Awarding a soft penalty can be justified as 'was 60% sure'
Bloody hell.
Say a footballer gets tackled unfairly and exaggerated his fall, and the ref gives him a red for play acting...do you think the footballer has much power to overturn the red card? Do you think fellow footballers all over the world will voice their support for him? NO.
Referees are like feminists these days. So sensitive. Perhaps in the future the referee Outfit should come win a bubble wrap.
