role: Goalkeeper
height: 196 cm
weight: 90 kg
Goalkeeper with extraordinary technical skills, he shows
an extraordinary reactivity between goal posts and a wonderful
confidence in far away coming outs.
The story of his relationship with the National Team sounds
almost incredible. He had been convoked by surprise because
to a sudden accident happened to Peruzzi, he was on the
bench during the match Croatia-Italy (8th October 1995),
but at the 10th minute of the first half of the match
a red card for Bucci made him debut with the colors of
the National Team: the final result was 1-1 and Toldo
was among the best players on the field.
Some years later, in June 2000, only one week away from
the beginning of the European Championship of Holland
and Belgium, Buffon broke his hand: Francesco was promoted
as regular player and proved to be a champion of world
caliber, making an excellent performance on the occasion
of the semi-final won with penalties by Italy against
Holland. |
