Gianluigi Buffon was left with egg on his face after a career-worst howler in goal for Parma in Serie B this evening.

Perugia were already 1-0 up when the veteran World Cup winner went out to gather what looked like a simple back-pass.

However, the 44-year-old took his eye off the ball for a moment and it got under his foot, with Marco Olivieri quickest to react and pounce.

Parma are stuck in mid-table and have lost sight of the race for promotion this season, but Perugia can still get into the play-offs.
