Legendary Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon played historic match with "Juventus" last night - he defended the club's honor in 500th match in the "Serie A" championship.
Only one player to have played so many matches in this club before the 40-year-old veteran was Alessandro Del Piero, who played a total of 513 matches in the Italian championship.
G. Buffon arrived at "Juventus" in 2001 and during that time won the "Serie A" championship 10 times. However, after the match-fixing scandal, two champion titles were later taken away from the "Juventus" team, so officially the goalkeeper has won 8 "Serie A" titles, three times won the Italian Cup, and five times triumphed in the Italian Super Cup tournament with the club.
