What Gianluigi Buffon Allegedly Said To The Referee When He Was Sent Off

Gianluigi Buffon made his 117th and presumably last Champions League appearance on Wednesday night and well, it was certainly one of the more 'action-packed' games of his legendary career.

For long periods, it looked like his Juventus side would go on and create history by bagging four goals at the famous Bernabeu.

But a controversial last minute penalty from Cristiano Ronaldo ended their hopes of European glory.

If you haven't seen it yet, here's the final five minutes of Wednesday night's unmissable fixture:

Seconds after the spot kick was given Buffon was sent off for screaming at, and pushing, referee Michael Oliver.

The five-time Balon d'Or winner slotted past substitute goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny and the rest is history.

But many are wondering what the Italian said to Premier League referee Oliver moments before he was sent off for a late bath.

That's right. Buffon allegedly told the referee to "go take a sh*t."

Thoughts on the penalty? Was it the right decision by referee Michael Oliver?
