Juventus keeper Buffon explains conceding Alaba stunner

Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon has spoken of conceding early in their Champions League defeat at Bayern Munich.

The Germans won the Champions League quarter-final first leg 2-0 at the Allianz Arena.

Buffon said: "It's clear we had some certainties about ourselves, but there's nothing to say tonight, as they thoroughly deserved the victory and had even more chances to hurt us.

"Alaba's shot got a deflection and I was moving towards the right, but the change of direction caught me out. I had already made a step to the right and the ball changed direction mid-air."
