In the early morning of April 26, Beijing time, Serie B played a league match, parma away to Peruga. As a result, 90 minutes later, Parma lost the match 1-2. In the first half of the game, the 44-year-old Buffon made a super low-level mistake, he was distracted in the game, the ball was hit by the opponent, and became the sinner of the team's defeat.
Shortly after the start of the match, Perugia relied on penalties to take the lead. Perhaps just after the game, the 44-year-old Buffon also had a wandering situation. In the 7th minute, when he returned a simple return pass from his teammate, there was a noticeable distraction, and in the case of a flaw, the opponent immediately seized the opportunity, hit the empty goal, and gained a 2-goal lead.
In the ensuing time, although Parma launched a fierce counterattack, there was no way to reverse the ending, and finally lost the game 1-2. There is no doubt that Buffon's mistake in the first half is an important reason for the team's backwardness, and it can only be said that as strong as the former Italian international, he also has to serve the old.
Last summer, Buffon chose to return to his old club Parma in order to play more games. Buffon, who was bent on participating in the World Cup, also failed to catch the last train at the end of the year. Of course, we do not rule out that 4 years later, Buffon still interprets the miracle of football to us. After all, among the active players, Buffon has the opportunity to break the number of times he participates in the World Cup, and he is currently competing with Kalhar and Mateus 5 times.
Although 44 years old, Buffon is parma's absolute main goalkeeper this season. But it is undeniable that it is too difficult for Buffon to support the club by himself. Parma's results this season are not good, and although they are not worried about relegation at present, they are ranked 13th and are still far from promotion.
With two rounds of Serie B left, Parma are already a really desireless landing team. Next season, Buffon will turn 45. If the club is for affection, it can definitely make Buffon play all the time. But from the perspective of competitive factors, this is obviously not appropriate.
In addition to Buffon, in fact, Parma has a veteran player who is quite familiar to Serie A fans, he is Pandev from North Macedonia. For Serie A fans, Parma is a club with a passion. But if the team is built just for the sake of feelings, then it is difficult for this club to have room to rise.
Both Buffon and Pendev are players close to retirement, and if they are always relied on, Parma will be stuck in a terrible cycle. There will always be young people on the pitch and if Parma wants to return to Serie A, there will be a real sense of shuffling the club.
