Juventus vs Inter: 5 Talking points as Juve beat Inter on penalties

#5 - Gianluigi Buffon's penalty heroics

Buffon was fantastic in the penalty shoot-out

After spending a solitary season in France with Paris Saint-Germain, Gianluigi Buffon returned to his beloved this summer for one final season in the top-flight.

The legendary Italian replaced first-choice goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny for the second-half and although he didn't have much to do in normal time, he made his presence felt in the penalty shoot-out as he proved to be the match-winner at the end of the day.

The 41-year-old rolled back the years and pulled off three stunning saves as Juventus prevailed 4-3 after the shoot-out.

Andrea Rannochia, Borja Valero and Samuele Longo had their respective penalties saved by the veteran goalkeeper as he proved that he's still got something to offer.

Although Szczesny is the undisputed No.1 between the sticks, Buffon is expected to feature in a handful of games as he eyes Paulo Maldini's record of most number of appearances in the history of the Serie A.
