It's as if it were written.

Olivier Giroud could not have hoped for a more important moment to score his 52nd goal for the France team.

It was this Sunday, during the round of 16 of the World Cup played by the Blues against Poland, that the AC Milan striker overtook Thierry Henry as the top scorer in the history of the Blues.

Giroud opened the scoring in the 43rd of the match, on a magnificent pass from Kylian Mbappé.

We admire the pivot shot, Szczesny could do nothing but watch the ball enter the ventilator.
