VIDEO – Giroud scores again with Milan

French striker Olivier Giroud once again hit the mark with AC Milan this Saturday in Serie A.

Decisive last Tuesday in the Champions League against PSG, Olivier Giroud once again got the ball rolling this Saturday with AC Milan. During the trip to Lecce, he was one of the two scorers for the Rossonerri against Lecce.

A goal and a red for Giroud

As against Paris, Giroud made the difference by successfully taking a cross from his compatriot Théo Hernandez. This time, it was with his knee that he put himself forward after having outpaced the opposing defender who was marking him.

While he went 6 games without scoring in Serie A at the start of the season, the former Montpellier player has just scored three in three games. In total, since the start of the current financial year, he has scored 7 goals and 3 assists offered.

Giroud’s achievement, however, did not ensure victory in this meeting. While leading by two goals at half-time, the recent scorers of PSG conceded a 2-2 draw. They conceded two goals in the space of four minutes (66e and 70e) in the second half. And the French international marred his good performance of the day a little by collecting a red card towards the end.
