Hit in the ankle and replaced by Marcus Thuram, author of his first goal with the Blues against Ireland, Olivier Giroud had a sad evening at the Parc des Princes. Despite a perfect start to the season in the colors of AC Milan, the tricolor striker will now have to take his troubles patiently before taking exams and knowing more about the seriousness of his injury. Present in the mixed zone, the former Montpellier HSC scorer was, despite everything, reassuring…

“I don’t think it’s too serious, I’ll do some exams. Already I limp a lot less so so much the better, it’s a shock on the astragalus (ankle bone, editor’s note), I make a bad movement which unfortunately prevented me from continuing the match. I did everything to continue but on the changes of direction, I saw that it was too difficult. I preferred to stop but as I speak to you, it’s rather reassuring. It’s all alone, as I told your colleague from the Gazzetta, I had suffered a blow in the Champions League at the end of last season and I have a weakness at this level so we will work on it . It’s a bit of bad luck, I may have to strap my ankle now to strengthen it, it’s a bit unlikely because in recent weeks I hadn’t felt anything. The ankle said stop but I am rather reassured about my post-match feelings.. Reviews will tell you more…
