The joke continues to grow in Italy. French striker Olivier Giroud, who brilliantly replaced Mike Maignan in the Milan cages, was officially voted best goalkeeper in Serie A for the past week. A wink certainly amusing and anecdotal but almost deserved given the fantastic end of the match against Genoa.
As a reminder, his compatriot Mike Maignan had been sent off and Stefano Pioli had no more possible changes so it was Olivier Giroud who finished the match in the cages, making a perfect and decisive exit to maintain the score. Like good wine, the Chambéry native ages well and adds new distinctions to her already well-stocked cabinet.
