Despite the fact that the main striker of the French national team, Olivier Giroud, failed to score a goal in the World Cup, it did not prevent his country from triumphing in the world championship.
However, many agree that the striker's task in this championship was not to score goals, but to perform more black and less noticeable work. This is understood by the player himself, who does not regret it at all.
"My 0 goals don't stop me from sleeping at night. People on the street tell me that even if I didn't score a goal, I was still important.
Maybe we wouldn't even have become champions if I had scored. Statistics can be used in all sorts of ways. I was useful in a different way," said O. Giroud.
