Buffon Jr scored in the 64th minute, capitalising on some shoddy defending from the French youngsters, beating them to a hopeful long-ball before going one-on-one with the goalkeeper and slotting home.
The youngster, who is a native of Turin and has live his entire life in Italy, spoke about representing Czechia in an interview with Livesport.
He said: "I discussed it with my parents and we decided that playing for the Czech Republic would be better for my football career and further development. That's why we went this route."
