Carroll, the savior of Bordeaux

For his first with Bordeaux, Andy Carroll scored a saving double.

What a start! Freshly poached by the Girondins de Bordeaux, Andy Carroll proved indispensable from his first outing, this Saturday at the Matmut Atlantique.

Against Châteaubriant, the 35-year-old former England international scored twice to allow FCGB to snatch a draw at home (2-2), in the 6e act of the National 2 championship.

Scorer in the 72nd minutee minute when the club with the scapular was trailing 2-0, Andy Carroll struck in the 87th minutee minute to seal a welcome draw for the Girondins.

With two days behind, the Bordeaux team are still at the back of the pack, credited with three points after three draws in four matches. Châteaubriant is eighth with six points.
