Buffon, the feeling of being invincible

The goalkeeper sets the record for Italy lacked: 974 minutes without suffering a goal. It will seek his sixth World in 2018, a universal milestone


On November 12, 2006, the Board of Juventus paid a full - page ads in the three major sports newspapers in Italy, Tuttosport, La Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport, with a message that read: " 'Your shirt says who you are " . Below were several photographs of Buffon and this text. "Society, colleagues, supporters and partners give thanks to Gigi Buffon is still and will always be our number one" The Turin club paid tribute to his goalkeeper copy because he had decided to stay play with the Bianconeri in the Italian second division rather than use his fame and his recent title of the World Cup to star in a historic transfer and economic business. The City made ​​him an astronomical proposal. The Bianconeri team down by being involved in the betting scandal calcium. His form continued with them. Now, at 38, has won the penultimate milestone in his career: the unbeaten record of Italian football: 974 minutes. Sunday surpassed the record of Sebastiano Rossi, 929 minutes, dating from 1993. Belotti, a penalty, brake your brand . But think get more.

"At 38 am better than ever , " says Buffon . Four - time winner award for Best Goalkeeper of the Year, Silver Ball in 2006 behind compatriot Cannavaro, is also considered the best goalkeeper in the last quarter century and the twenty - first century.


Tomy N'Kono, the culprit

Gianluigi Buffon decided to be because of the Cameroonian goalkeeper Thomas Nkono, whose performances in the 1990 World Cup in Italy sparked his vocation. Over time, the Spanish excancerbero has consistently praised the ability of the Italian to become the world 's number one goalkeeper. Buffon's second son called Louis Thomas in honor of his African friend , who triumphed in the Spanish football with their stops, feet and hands, and that black tracksuit that hid her legs mystery of our league. We never saw her shins.


Euro

Invincibility increases the feeling of impregnable goalkeepers. It gives them life. They are heroes. Almost inhuman . Extraterrestrials. Buffon has lived many times that feeling since 1996 won the UEFA European Under-21 Championship. In 1997 he made ​​his debut A. It takes 154 games with Italy. It is the record holder history of your country. And now he played his last European Championship in France, in search of one of the two titles that are missing in his resume. The other is the Champions League, which deprived the Barcelona last year . Your challenge is to reach the World Cup 2018. He thinks Russia has conditions to be the captain of his sixth World, which would be a universal record.

"No" to 20 million annually

Buffon did not get a goal on 64 minutes Scudetto from Sampdoria-Juventus, played on January 10, when it was surpassed by Antonio Cassano exmadridista. Since then he has achieved ten wins in eleven games. Raul Albiol could break this record in the Juventus-Napoli, but his shot was cleared by N'Kono friend and Casillas. It is commendable friendship with other gatekeepers international level. It is a myth.

Gianluigi rejected in 2012 the best of his life: Shakhtar Donetsk offered 20 million euros per season. Is his character that does not look at the money and if the commitment since he started his professional career in 1995 when he debuted at 17 in a Parma-Milan. In 2001 he was signed by Juventus and at home he continues, with 573 matches on the pocket.

Recently he explained why he said 'no' in 2006, after being world champion, to supply the City, to stay in the Turin club: "I chose to descend to Second because I thought of you, kids (he said to the young followers) . And I thought of you because there are times when you have to stop talking and act. I think I did the right thing . "

He divorced the Czech model Alena Seredova in 2014, mother of his two children, Louis Thomas and David Lee. Now it is rumored that comes with the sports commentator Ilaria D'Amico. But that is another story.

Morata plant face the phenomenon Aduriz

Last Friday, moments after giving the squad for the friendlies against Italy and Romania, Vicente del Bosque took a question about the absence of Diego Costa to give a touch of attention to his other strikers: "Let us be clear. They are not at their best. They have often not being met expectations. We demand more performance, yet still come to the selection. "

That reference was addressed, among others, Alvaro Morata . Its irregular season at Juventus is one of the reasons Aduriz landing on the national team. Section title by Dybala and Mandzukic, his meager baggage scorer Del Bosque has led to lay hold of a striker who until recently was not in his plans.

It happens that in the midst of these words spoken by Del Bosque, Morata has played that with security are the two most complete course matches: against Bayern in the round of the knockout stages of the Champions League , and in the Turin derby last day of the Italian League. Against Guardiola had flashes of world crack. He played a sublime game topped with a masterful move: a run of 60 meters which came to leave Bayern to four defenders before attending Square in the second goal for Juve. His change in overtime ended up costing the tie to the Italians. Four days later, Morata also regained his scoring touch against Torino. He scored twice off the bench who signed the incontestable victory of his team.

Thus, Morata reaches this penultimate call before Euro at its sweetest moment of the season, convinced to do battle in the fight for being the battering ram of Spain and attentive to the siren songs that will put back in the Real Madrid next year.

In that battle for being the offensive reference selection Morata will face an excited Aduriz . Athletic striker landed with the illusion of a beginner and certainly overwhelmed by the avalanche of popular support emerged in favor of his recruitment: "I've been very wrapped. I did not expect that much talk me out of Bilbao environment. "

The Basque striker, 31 goals this season, get ready to play "the best" and denies most when asked about the difficulty of being a "nine" pure in the selection: "I do not know how I feel and how I can fit into the team. Here you are some spectacular players and have to be great to play alongside him. To say that the front suffer ... I do not think so. It is true that not play directly with them, but once you get the ball makes it in the best conditions. "

Marcelo: "We're paying not do a good pre-season"

Marcelo believes that Real Madrid "did not do a good pre - season" and is "paying for it " at this time. This was stated in an interview to the website "Globoesporte", which also states that Zinedine Zidane "is doing a good job."

"I see very well. It is difficult to catch Real Madrid with a lot of criticism in the middle of the year and be fighting not to finish third or fourth. 're Doing a good job . There is still the end of the season, we will see how just. Sure to be one of the best in the world , "said Brazilian defender white club.

He also said that one of its objectives is to continue at Real Madrid "everything I can" and renew his contract, which expires in 2020, although he said that if he returns to Brazil, would like to play or the Botafogo club is follower , or Fluminense computer on which it was formed.

Over compatriot Neymar, he said he does not speak " a lot" of football with him and considered that " it would be difficult" that someday may change the Barcelona by Real Madrid , after "making history" in Catalan club.

Atletico Madrid before jelly to the classic: "We'll won all"

For once and without a precedent. But increasingly being repeated this situation. It happened already in the quarterfinals of the Champions 2014, when the rojiblancos removed in Barcelona. Then, the Whites supported the athletic to knock out the most fearsome adversary. Both reached the final in Lisbon. 

Now, the two clubs in the capital play united in a common front with one goal: to stop Barcelona in the Classic League on April 2, and in the European Cup, 5, and desgastarle for those two games the continental and the rest of the Spanish championship competition. "Cristiano, we all win" , say the rojiblancos players. Jalean Portuguese striker before the match at Camp Nou. 

Demonstrations of support once the eternal rival are not trivial. The Real Madrid Zidane lives a possible dream: winning the Camp Nou on day 2 and placed seven points behind Barca in the league. And Atletico dreams of the possibility of his Madrid enemy, because winning would be placed six.

The merger of interests is clear. Atletico want the Real Madrid wins in Barcelona and also that causes enormous physical fatigue in men of Luis Enrique who is palpable three days later in European confrontation. Atletico expect the most from Zidane's pupils, who are already preparing the classic in Valdebebas ten days of training focused on Barcelona with a clear goal: to surprise in which no one believes.

To surprise

French coach knows that nobody bet for them and want to get a good result at the Camp Nou to change that realistic view of Madrid which dictates that their players play for wave at the Bernabeu to let the titles at home. His draws against Sporting, Betis, Valencia and Malaga twice have cost the ten points today he would place as leader of the Spanish championship.

White club working for a week the high challenge of Barcelona. He has negotiated well with the national team and has managed to Bale, the king of Wales, stay in Madrid to focus on the classic.

"Merci, France"
Also has been good that Benzema is not called by France, although the striker had already discharged last Thursday and reappeared against Sevilla with a great game and a goal on the turn. The striker and his partner Valbuena have not been called by Deschamps to no media attention focus on them the two friendly matches of the hosts of Euro 2016. 

"Karim" as he called Zidane, is still pending the verdict of the judge Nathalie Boutard regarding its complaint in the case of blackmail sexual Valbuena.

Casemiro will start in the classic, with Marcelo, Bale and Benzema. Carvajal aspire to be. And Lucas hopes to enter the second half.

twelve concerns
Twelve men have left their selections, to the concern of the club, which has exposed them to be careful and not to play if they feel physical discomfort. The selected are: Cristiano, Pepe, Ramos, Nacho, Isco, Modric, Kroos, Varane, Kovacic, James, Danilo and Keylor.

Ronaldo has warned not played two full games. Ni Pepe. So they have requested Modric and Kroos. With Del Bosque, the smartest in these situations, no problem: you graduate to Ramos, Isco and Nacho. And Atletico Koke and Juanfran. And the Catalans.

The white revolution of the future will occur in June. Zidane is responsible. He shall decide the reinforcements required template . Also it will order low (Arbeloa is the first contract ends) . But now it focuses on saving the season. The Nou Camp will mark the future of the League. Then comes Wolfsburg on 6 and 12 April, to settle the future in the Champions League. Change can wait three months.
