Juventus vs AC Milan: 5 key players who can decide Coppa Italia final

#5 Gianluigi Buffon

Buffon's last Coppa Italia, can it end with another trophy?

This might be the last cup final he features for in a Juventus shirt, having professed his decision to hang up his boots at the end of the season. So naturally, the Bianconeri stalwart would aim to end on a high.

But for that, he needs to reconjure his best. The last few games has seen the 40-year old come a cropper, and hasn't kept a cleansheet in each of the last 4 games. Buffon appears increasingly twitchy and every shot gliding towards him threatens to end in the back of the net. This should change if he were to keep out Milan and must recoup his A1 game between the sticks.

Milan are sure to take the game to Juventus as their attacking vanguard is currently imbuing overwhelming amount of flair, and the onus would be on Buffon to step up to the plate everytime the defense is outfoxed.

Key stat: Buffon concedes a goal every 1.63 game, the best figures in Serie A this term.
