Buffon: Juventus should have had it won after 25 minutes

Gianluigi Buffon feels Juventus should have had the Supercoppa Italiana won after 25 minutes of their match with AC Milan in Doha.

Juve missed out on the trophy, losing 4-3 on penalties after 120 minutes of action had produced a 1-1 draw.

The Italy goalkeeper saved a penalty from Gianluca Lapadula in the shoot-out, but saw his 600th Juve appearance end in disappointment after misses from Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala.

Buffon felt Juve should have had the game won long before that drama, though, pointing to their dominance of the early stages, when Giorgio Chiellini put them ahead, with Gianluigi Donnarumma making a string of other key saves.
