During AC Milan’s victory over Genoa, forward Olivier Giroud found himself in the role of goalkeeper after Mike Maignan was sent off in the 90+9th minute.
Despite not scoring, Giroud made a crucial save late in the game. He expressed his satisfaction with this unusual experience.
« I’ve never experienced this in my career. I think I was the tallest, so I went into the goal. When I was a child, I liked that position. Plus, I made a great save at the end of the match. »
« I felt a special emotion when I made that save, it was almost like scoring a goal, and I’m proud of the entire team. We fought like lions. Calabria hit my arm hard, but I’m okay… I’m going to frame this jersey, » appreciated the French international to DAZN.
