Olivier Giroud was proud of his clean sheet as the AC Milan striker filled in at goal for victory over Genoa.
Milan won 1-0, with Giroud taking Mike Maignan's jersey after the Frenchman was sent off. With all substitutions used, the striker took his place between the posts.
“I never experienced a moment like this!" laughed Giroud to Sky Italia
“I am very proud for the team, we fought to the end, I made a good save! I was also lucky with the crossbar. We fought like lions and I am very happy for the fans."
Giroud managed a late save to keep the clean sheet.
“I wasn't sure if it was going to be a header or not, so I thought just go and it's better to be there than staying on the line. I do not have the movements of a goalkeeper, but that is what I felt. It really hurt my arm, but that's fine.
“I did like to go in goal when I was a kid, so that's why I was chosen."
Giroud did his interviews wearing Maignan's jersey.
“I am keeping this jersey now, I'm framing it!"

Giroud heroics should be put to rest and allow him and the rest of the squad to focus more on other matches
