Gianluigi Buffon: "There is no point in discussing what could have happened. Now we will go to Euro 2024"

Legendary Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon commented on the outcome of the Euro 2024 qualifying match against Ukraine, criticising the match's chief referee Jesus Manzano.

- The players of the Italian national team did not give any reason to doubt that they deserve the right to play at Euro 2024. Only those players who are ready to give everything for success always play for this team. In this match, the players gave it their all. And even though we failed to win, we demonstrated our will.

Was it a penalty kick? I didn't see that episode, everything happened far away from me. But the referee didn't work this match very well. He made mistakes in both directions and allowed players to act too roughly. There is no point in discussing what could have happened. Now we will go to Euro 2024 to defend the title," Tuttomercato quoted Buffon as saying.
