Juventus legendary goalkeeper, Gianluigi Buffon, has written a letter to his goal post after he broke the all-time record for the longest time without conceding a goal in the Italian Serie A.

The 38-year-old, who reached 974 minutes before he was beaten, broke former AC Milan goalkeeper, Sebastiano Rossi’s record (929) in Juventus 4-1 derby win over Torino.

Buffon, who played in midfield up until he was 12, reflected on his long relationship with his ‘goal’ and expressed his feelings.
