Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon just became a father for the second time as his celebrity partner, Alena Seredova, gave birth to David Lee.
However, Buffon was unable to dedicate a win to his newborn child as he had hoped to do, as the Bianconeri found themselves on the wrong end of a comeback by Napoli on Saturday evening to lose 3-2 in the 11th matchday of the Italian top flight.
"I really wanted to win tonight to dedicate the victory to David Lee," declared the former Parma goalkeeper to tuttonapoli.net.
"I can't really say what happened. Maybe after [Sebastian] Giovinco's goal we thought we had the game in our hands.
"It's normal in these moments to drop our guards and they took advantage of it."
Juventus are still with 21 points from 11 games, four points behind leaders Inter, but the Nerazzurri can increase their cushion with their game against Livorno today.
