Champions League: Juventus' Gigi Buffon Compares Referee Michael Oliver To "Rubbish Bin" Over Awarding Penalty To Real Madrid

Gigi Buffon has serious issues with referee Michael Oliver over his decision that had he sent off for disputing with and awarding penalty to Real Madrid dead in second half  that cost Juventus qualification to the semi-final of the Champions League.
The 40-year-old described Michael a man with a "rubbish bin" heart because he led the elimination of Juventus in the quarter finals.
"To award such a doubtful, or super doubtful, penalty just ahead of the final whistle and destroy the work of a team who gave absolutely everything you have to have a rubbish bin instead of your heart," he said about Michael. 
Juventus' Benatia brought down Lucas Vazquez in the box
The game went Real way when Ronaldo converted penalty conceded by Juventus' Benatia when Lucas Vàzquez was brought down in the box late in the game in spite of already leading 3-0 to equalise on aggregate 3-3.
"A human being cannot decide the elimination of a team with such decision. When I don’t feel I’m good enough, I put myself in a corner. He should do the same. It’s a matter of sensibility...You [Oliver] don’t know shit."
Buffon believed the gave would have gone their way because the had done the "impossible" and eventual elimination happened "unjustly".
“We had done something which seemed impossible. It’s a pity it ended like this, unjustly. It was one tenth of a penalty. But life goes on," he said.
