What a beautiful pick! Once again, Olivier Giroud has been able to silence the grumpy and skeptical by proving to be decisive – and rather twice a – under his new colors. Scorer last week in Brest (3-3), the 38-year-old striker struck again this Sunday to offer Lille a precious victory over Monaco (1-0).
In this closing match of the 2e Championship lifting, the top scorer in the history of the French team (57 achievements for 137 capes endorsed) arose at the very end of the match to make the difference. Well served at the heart of the surface by Fernandez-Pardo, the old Gunner found the fault of an adjusted pivot strike (90e+1).
In the process, Giroud almost made the break on a penalty obtained by the twirling Fernandez-Pardo. Only the interested party too much removed his shot at 11 meters (90e+9), thus leaving the brand to 1-0 in favor of the DOGUES. Sufficient to ensure the happiness of Lille who with four points on the clock after two days are alone in fifth position in the ranking. A length in front of OM and ASM in particular and in the wake of a quartet which has been able to be a full cardboard until then – a leading group composed of OL, PSG, TFC and RCSA.
