GIROUD IS THE MVP FROM AC MILAN v TORINO
Awards
If his goal against Sassuolo gave some hope of a comeback, that ultimately only softened the heavy defeat, the one last night over Torino was decisive in sealing a vital victory. With his seventh goal of the season, and second at San Siro on the trot, Olivier Giroud has been chosen by our fans, via the official App, as the MVP in AC Milan v Torino, after winning almost 50% of the vote ahead of Thiaw and Kalulu.
Once again, he headed home during an important part of the game in the second half. He showed his experience, strength, and great positional sense in and around goal: one look at the ball, then the movement to get free from Djidji, as Hernández crossed in, before finding the back of the net.
In the 89 minutes he was on the field of play, before giving way for Origi to a round of applause from the San Siro public, the French striker's match statistics read positively as he featured heavily on the night: 15 successful passes, 14 duels (eight won), five aerial duels (three won), three shots on target (two saved) and three balls recovered.
A guarantee. If the Rossoneri have got back to winning ways, smiling once again at least for an evening, with the hope it can spur on an upcoming positive Champions League night, and the season in general, a lot of that is mainly down to Giroud: well done Oli!
