Gianluigi Buffon explained how goalkeepers’ height affects long-range shots. “30 years ago, out of every 50 shots from long range, 10 were goals. Now there should be about three of them. From long distance it is very difficult to score a goal for a two-meter goalkeeper,” he emphasized.
The 45-year-old former Italy international said the authorities “are of course asking themselves questions and studying the analysis.”
At the same time, the 2006 world champion with Squadra Azzurra noted the high speed of field players as an additional difficulty for goalkeepers. “They are more unpredictable and shoot with more force,” he said.
