He's 38 and has been around forever but we *still* can't get enough of Gigi Buffon.
Having belted out his country's national anthem on Monday night, the Juventus goalkeeper kept a clean sheet as Italy beat much-fancied Belgium 2-0 in their Euro 2016 opener.
With his side 1-0 up for most of the match, he sprinted the full length of the field to join his teammates in celebrating their second goal, a late strike from Southampton's Graziano Pelle.
But his celebrations weren't done there...
With the Italian team celebrating their win in Lyon as if they'd won the entire competition, Buffon sprinted at the goal in front of his team's supporters, leapt and grabbed a hold of the crossbar, much to the delight of the Azzurri fans. And then he lost grip, crashing to the floor in the goalmouth.
Fortunately, he picked himself up immediately.

Good to see he didn't do himself an injury. Although he announced the other month that he intended to retire after the next World Cup, there's still a chance that this *could* be the last time we see the legendary goalkeeper at a major tournament. We'd hate to see it end prematurely.
Italy will now face Sweden on Friday before playing their last group match against Ireland, next week.
