Like the commentator had said, Buffon had quite the experience standing between the ball and the goal and over the years he had developed quite the instinct.
By just watching the player run up to the ball, he could usually determine where the player was going to send the ball.
Nine out of ten times, he was usually correct, but this did not always mean that he could catch the ball even though he could almost always guess where it was headed.
However, tonight was one of those nights when things aligned perfectly for him, and he dived at the ball, managing to get a hand to hit and grasp it tightly before he hit the floor.
On hitting the ground, he quickly pulled the ball into a tight embrace.
{The penalty is saved by Gigi Buffon! Wonderful save from the Uventus goalkeeper!} the commentator screamed excitedly as groans of agony filled the vast majority of the stadium.
