Goalkeeping legend Dino Zoff still believes Juventus shot stopper Gigi Buffon to be No 1 in Italy.

Buffon missed the first six months of the season after back surgery and has made mistakes since his return.

Interviewed by Tuttosport, Zoff said: "If Buffon is OK physically then he has no problems being No 1.

"He is Italy's goalkeeper and remains among the best in the world.

"If he is on top there shouldn't be and can't be any rivalry.
