On the evening of June 5, UEFA announced its decision to punish Juve captain and Italian goalkeeper Buffon, who was sent a red card in the Champions League knockout against Real Madrid. Buffon has been suspended for three games in Europe, which means he will be suspended for three games wherever he goes next season.
On the morning of April 12, Beijing time, Real Madrid lost 1-3 at home to Juventus in the second leg of the Champions League quarter final, but with the score of 3-0 in the first leg, Real Madrid's 4-3 thrilling knockout opponents advanced to the top four and finally won the championship. At the last moment of the game, because of dissatisfaction with the referee's decision to blow a foul in benatia's forbidden area and give a penalty to Real Madrid, Buffon rushed forward to find the referee's theory, but because of the collision, the referee was sent off with a red card by the referee on duty Oliver. Substitute goalkeeper szczesny came out but failed to defend Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty, which Real Madrid relied on to eliminate Juve.
This game is Buffon's last European game on behalf of Juve. Buffon said goodbye in a red card way, which naturally makes many fans feel sorry. A direct red card and a confrontation with the referee led to Buffon's final additional penalty from UEFA. UEFA announced a ticket for Buffon on the evening of June 5, and the Italian goalkeeper was suspended for three games. Although Buffon's red card was won on behalf of Juve, the penalty will be imposed on Buffon's new club. Even though Buffon is determined to leave and hasn't announced his home, he can't escape punishment as long as he is under the jurisdiction of UEFA in the Champions League, the UEFA Cup or the European Super Cup.
