Gigi Buffon and the super save on Dzeko: protagonist even at 45 years old. The records of him, the tennis, the 88 ‘and the diploma bought

He hadn’t played since October and returned to the field against Inter, in the match lost by his Parma team in extra time at San Siro (2-1, 10 January), valid for the round of 16 of the Italian Cup. And as already many times in his career, Gigi Bufffon was one of the greats protagonists of Fabio Pecchia’s team at the Meazza. He only surrendered to Lautaro Martinez’s goal in the 88th minute (shot deflected by Osorio, enough to fool Gigi), but was wonderful in the parade on Dzeko in full recovery. An intervention that, in fact, took the match to extra time. And there Inter had the upper hand with a header from Acerbi. Parma eliminated but with his head held high, indeed very high. With Buffon still protagonist a he will turn almost 45 on January 28th. Not only that: yesterday, they had passed 25 years and 129 days since his debut in the Italian Cup (Venice-Parma, 3 September 1997).
