It took only three minutes in the derby against Torino.

After 16 seasons and 451 matches the record is finally his.

Now, no one in Serie A ever kept a clean sheet beyond Gianluigi Buffon.

Giangluigi Buffon came to Juventus in 2001 and he has since been able to make over 450 appearances for the Turin club, and he has also won the Scudetto six times.

But the highlight of his career? It may very well have come today.

Now, have no alternative goalie ever kept a clean sheet longer in Serie A.

Buffon had before the game, and the derby against Torino played 926 minutes but a nil. The previous record was held by Sebastiano Rossi, as the 1993-1994 season played 930 minutes without conceding a goal.

– Memories are important but not as important as what you are doing your team. This record will undoubtedly be the highlight of his career, said Sebastiano Rossi before the game to Goal.

Buffon needed therefore shutouts in three minutes – and he did so without problems.

Buffon also got to celebrate the record with a win. But not with a new zero.

With 48 minutes played Andrea Belotti safely shoot a penalty for Torino. A goal that, however, only meant a reduction to 1-2.

Before that Paul Pogba swerving in a free kick and after a soloräd extended Sami Khedria to 2-0. Both goals came in the first half.

The match eventually

ended 4-1 to Juventus.
