Buffon happy with cleansheet for Juventus win

Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon was delighted to keep a cleansheet in their win over AS Monaco in the first-leg of their Champions League quarterfinal.

Arturo Vidal's penalty was the only goal to separate the two teams.

"The result is positive for being a victory and for keeping a clean sheet at home, which gives us an advantage," said Buffon.

"We created some of our problems in the opening 20 minutes and Monaco put their qualities on show.

"We made some mistakes in our passes and created three or four very dangerous counter-attack situations for them."
