Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon fears his World Cup is over.
Buffon missed Italy's victory over England due to a sprained ankle.
"Good day to everyone..." wrote Buffon on his official Twitter and WhoSay accounts.
"Life is beautiful and I am still indebted to her... It won't be a missed game or another World Cup missed out to make me change my mind!!!
"Besides, there are many ways to be important, even if you're not a protagonist on the field... therefore... forza great Salvatore... forza magical lads... FORZA ITALIA, my great love!!!"
