Bianconeri captain Gigi Buffon thrilled supporters across the world during this afternoon’s entertaining Q&A session on the club’s official Twitter profile.
Less than 24 hours after crossing the 500-appearance milestone for Juventus, the 36-year-old was back in Vinovo and eager to answer a host of questions arriving from all four corners of the globe.
Naturally, these started with a reflection on his latest achievement that came on a bittersweet night for the goalkeeper at the Luigi Ferraris.
.@RenoHanditiyo It doesn’t matter that it was my 500th game. Any defeat is painful.#AskBuffon #Buffon500

Despite having plenty of difficult choices to make in his professional career, the World Cup winner insisted he wouldn’t have it any other way.
.@NikaFJ I wouldn’t change anything, even if there were some tough decisions to make. But seeing how everything's gone, I’d make them again.

When asked about penalty takers, Gigi revealed that Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo would be his least favoured opponent from 12 yards.
.@juventino1979 It's not the penalty that's the issue. Having never played against Messi, I'd say Cristiano Ronaldo. #AskBuffon #Buffon500
