Buffon: Ronaldo was a true beast in the penalty area, I have never seen a player like him

Legendary Italian national team goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon spoke about Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo.

"Cristiano scored against me in every game, except for one game, when I was sent off, and he scored after that as well."

According to Lent.az, citing foreign media, Buffon said.

He also admitted that he couldn't sleep at night before every game against Ronaldo: "He had incredible aggression, ruthlessness and speed that always left his opponents five meters behind. I have never seen a player like him. He was a true beast in the penalty area and always wanted to score."
