AC Milan striker Olivier Giroud was delighted proving the matchwinner against Spezia.
Giroud grabbed an acrobatic goal as Milan defeated Spezia 2-1.
“It was a good goal and a fine pass from Sandro, we wanted to win this match, we were fired up to the end. The most important thing is that tomorrow we have an extra three points, but I am a bit angry because I am suspended,” Giroud told Sky Italia.
“This game reminded me of last season when there was a mistake. At least this time we won it, we believed to the end of the match and are happy.”
Giroud was sent off after receiving a second yellow card for taking off his shirt in his celebration.
“Perhaps I am just struggling to answer right now as I am angry with myself, I’ll feel better in an hour or so. I was furious with myself, but I tried to shut up. I did my job, I put the ball in the back of the net.
“Football is like that, with the adrenaline and joy of giving victory to my team, after a difficult game, in my head I am still a little kid! I had to celebrate.
“I don’t know if it’s the best moment of my career, but there are moments when you are in the right place at the right time, then I try to do what I know how to do, my life is in the penalty area. I didn’t score for five games a couple of weeks ago, I was a bit frustrated, but I always tried to keep my confidence and work hard in training.”
