In the 58th minute of tonight’s UEFA Nations League tie against Sweden, Chelsea striker bagged his second goal of the night for France with a lovely header.
A chance was sparked when Paul Pogba switched the play to Kylian Mbappe, with the superstar effortlessly controlling the ball before floating an inch-perfect cross into the box.
Giroud dove forward to head the ball into the back of the net, this was the target-man’s second of the night after he started and finished the move that led to France’s equaliser.
That is vintage Giroud!
