Buffon Fancies Juve's Chances Against Real

Italian international keeper Gianluigi Buffon has declared that his Juventus side have what it takes to overcome Real Madrid in the semifinal stage of the Champions League.

Italian international keeper Gianluigi Buffon has declared that his Juventus side have what it takes to overcome Real Madrid in the semifinal stage of the Champions League.

"I did see them score three times at Old Trafford but they conceded four on Wednesday which gives me great hope," said the long-limbed 25-year-old, who has been such a pillar for the Bianconeri this campaign.

"They may be the best team in the world but the fact that they attack so much means that they have to leave gaps at the back," he continued to explain, before admitting that his team will be going into the mouthwatering affair as underdogs.

"The game against Real will be similar to the Barca clash because no one really fancied us too much. Don't forget that at Juventus, we are at our most dangerous when people write us off."
