Before the game, the legendary shotstopper was honoured with an enormous tifo which spread across an end stand as his time with the Serie A champions came to its fruition.
The 40-year-old, who joined Juve from Parma in 2001, announced on Thursday that he would be bringing his playing stint at the 'Bianconeri' to an end, having amassed 18 domestic trophies during his time in Turin.
After pulled off a fine save to deny Mohamed Fares early on in Saturday's clash, Buffon made way for Carlo Pinsoglio in the 63rd minute.
Hugging each of his Juve team-mates and several Verona opponents in an emotional farewell, Juve's captain received a guard of honour as he reached the touchline, breaking down in tears as he bid the crowd farewell for a final time.
The substitution took five minutes, with no one in the stadium wanting his long career with the Serie A outfit to come to an end. But as Buffon headed down into the dressing room, it is undoubtedly the start of a new era in Turin.
