The goalkeeper of Juventus Gianluigi Buffon revealed who he voted for in the "Golden Ball" awards.

The veteran voted for his teammate Andrea Pirlo, the Madrid Real leader Cristiano Ronaldo, and the previous winner Lionel Messi, who represents Barcelona.

According to the Italian, his fellow countryman and both Primera league players are more deserving of winning the award than Bayern Munich's Franck Ribery.

"Here's how I distributed my votes: Pirlo - first, Ronaldo - second, and Messi - third," Buffon said.

The goalkeeper also talked about the very important Champions League match against Copenhagen - the Serie A champions need only a victory.

"If we don't win, there will be problems. However, we are confident that we will play well, as we are currently demonstrating good form. We will only think about Galatasaray after this match," the goalkeeper said.
