In a recent interview, Italy and Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has claimed that it was he who is to thank for the red card which sent Zinedine Zidane off and ultimately helped Italy win the World Cup in 2006. Buffon claims that he was the only person on the field that saw the head-butting incident, and informed the linesman who in turn saw it on the video screens. Zidane's red card in extra time caused the momentum of the match to swing into Italy's favour, and the Azzurri won the match in penalties.
