Juventus captain Gianluigi Buffon reportedly consoled Milan’s Gigio Donnarumma after his mistakes - “you still have 20 years ahead of you”.
The 19-year-old made two howlers leading to goals in yesterday’s Coppa Italia final, allowing Douglas Costa’s strike to slip through his hands before dropping the ball at the feet of Medhi Benatia.
The youngster was visibly devastated as he walked off the pitch at the end of the match, and CalcioNews24 reports that his opposite number consoled him.
Buffon is said to have reminded Donnarumma “you still have 20 years ahead of you”, telling him not to dwell on his mistakes at the Olimpico.
The veteran is expected to retire at the end of the season, and Donnarumma has been touted as his heir in the national team.
