You made me laugh I swear. Well maybe I am old fashioned but we used to applaud guys who clear the ball near the goalkeeper.

I`m sure you do, just like I speak at least one language that you don't understand, that is why we use the common language - english, to communicate with each other.
I will say it (again) - it doesnt really matter what happened after a penalty from almost 16 years ago, since it didnt result in Juventus conceding a goal. And yet it matters in this particular conversation because you picked a specific moment from that situation and praised one individual for his reaction and for what you remember that he did, while in reality it was a little bit different. Our brain does that sometimes - you remember that it was Thuram who reached the ball first and then your brain makes you think that he instantly kicked it away from the penalty area and cleared the danger - like you first said: "when Buffon saved Figo’s penalty Thuram stepped up and kicked the ball out of the penalty area." However, the video of the situation shows that Thuram neither kicked the ball nor cleared it, he collected the ball and with his first touch he went for the right side of our flang, ran towards the touch-line in an attempt to start a counter-attack (or maybe to then kick it away from the goal, whatever his plan was at that moment), his second touch of the ball was misjudged and poor, and his attempt to move past Figo, who was chasing him and the ball, failed and the ball went out for a throw-in just a few metres from the corner-spot - so in result the danger remained and had Real scored from the play after their throw-in then Thuram would have been (partially) responsible for not kicking/clearing the ball away from our goal in the first place and removing the danger, which is quite the opposite of what you remember and what you praised him for.
Now, since all of this is not related to Bonucci and is offtopic, I would like to simply say this - You are a free man and you are free to remember whatever you want, however you want it, you can tell the story of "when Buffon saved Figo’s penalty Thuram stepped up and kicked the ball out of the penalty area." to friends, colleagues, family, your children and grandchildren whatever you like and want to and neither I nor anyone else can stop you from doing just that. Cheers!
