AC Milan striker Giroud forced out of France win with injury

  /  autty

AC Milan striker Olivier Giroud suffered an ankle injury in action for France last night.

Giroud started France's Euro2024 qualifying win against the Republic of Ireland.

However, the veteran limped off on 25 minutes after being seen clutching his ankle. He suffered the injury earlier, but couldn't carry on and asked to be substituted.

The 36 year-old removed his boot and was visibly in pain as he left the pitch.

Giroud now risks missing next week's derby against Inter Milan.
