Whats going on with Buffon? is he injured?
He got back pains and they took him. Buffon’s been injured for most of the season and declared himself fit for selection so it’s not much of a surprise.
Buffon, Italy's first choice keeper, was replaced at half-time after aggravating a back twinge he felt earlier during the warm-up in the rain where temperatures averaged about 8 degrees celcius.
"He had a bit of a problem in his back. He had a back ache during the warm-up - already it started to manifest itself," Lippi said after the match.
"The doctors will have to say (if he'll be back for the next game)."
