Lucas Vazquez earned a tie-winning penalty in a somewhat controversial manner. This lead to Gianluigi Buffon being sent off in his last Champions League appearance.
Andrea Pirlo has shared his thoughts on the questionable penalty.

He said: “Is it a a penalty? I think it could be.”

“But I understand Buffon, I would’ve gone crazy. I think he exaggerated the part about a crime against the humanity of sports being committed, but it should be understood that it was his last game in the Champions League and he expected to win it.”
