    A real tragedy.

    Buffon's tribute on the BBC Sport page was spot on and one of the best I've heard.

    Astori's captain at international level Gianluigi Buffon paid a glowing tribute to his friend. He said: "You have a young wife and family members who are suffering. Your little girl deserves to know that her father was in all respects a perfect person. You were the best expression of an ancient, surpassed world, in which values ​​such as altruism, elegance, education and respect for others, were the masters.

    "You were one of the best sports figures I came across."

    Emotional.
