Platini: Buffon went overboard
By Football Italia staff

Michel Platini has offered his two cents on the ongoing controversy surrounding Gianluigi Buffon’s post-Milan-Juventus comments.

After the top-of-the-table clash, which finished 1-1 but was overshadowed by the controversy of Sulley Muntari’s missed legitimate goal, Buffon said that even if he knew the ball had crossed the line, he would not have admitted so to the referee.

The Italy captain has been criticised for lacking responsibility in his choice of words and even as the goalkeeper and his national Coach Cesare Prandelli defended them on Monday morning, former Juve legend and current UEFA President Platini is the latest to suggest he was unwise.

“Buffon has gone too far with his words and between Turin and Milan there should not be war. If the referee had asked him and he had said 'no’, then that would have figured him to be a liar.

“If I had scored a goal with my hand and the referee had asked me, I would have said I had scored it with my hand. [Diego] Maradona didn’t do it? No-one asked him.”

The UEFA president cannot say anything else, he's thinking about his position more than the Milan game.

Screw you Platini. Buffon is a bigger Juve legend and much classier than you. Really should've just shut his mouth up about this matter.

I personally lost a lot of respect for him.

Such messed up moral standards :lol:

Might as well instruct the refs to ask players about dubious incidents and ban the liars :howler:

Seriously, why even our people are against us. WTF is going on? Or am I just biased, who sees it like that.

It just seems to me like everyone really hates us... even neutrals.
