Throwback to when Zidane pulled this off against Buffon in the World Cup final. Zinedine Zidane and Gianluigi Buffon were at the center of one of the most unforgettable moments in World Cup final history when the French legend chipped a fearless Panenka penalty over Italy’s greatest goalkeeper to... open the scoring at Berlin’s Olympiastadion on July 9, 2006. With the world watching and the stakes at their highest, Zidane, playing the final match of his professional career, showed remarkable composure by delicately lifting his penalty off the underside of the crossbar and into the net, leaving Buffon with no chance. It remains one of the boldest and most technically brilliant penalties ever taken on football’s biggest stage. Zidane finished the 2006 World Cup with five goals, including this iconic strike, while Buffon conceded just two goals throughout Italy’s title-winning campaign. Their duel in the final remains one of the defining moments of the tournament and is remembered as one of the greatest individual battles in World Cup history.show more
