Giroud's header secures Milan's first Champions League win
Milan, Italy (Reuters) - 7 November 2023
A powerful header from Olivier Giroud early in the second half secured AC Milan's first Champions League win of the season as they beat Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 at the San Siro on Tuesday.
The French striker connected with a cross from Theo Hernandez to give Milan the lead in the 51st minute, and that proved to be the winning goal as PSG could only manage a consolation from Kylian Mbappe in the 78th minute.
The win moves Milan up to second place in Group E, three points behind leaders Chelsea, while PSG remain bottom of the group with just one point from three games.
Giroud's goal was his third in this season's Champions League, and it was a vital one for Milan, who had lost their opening two games in the competition.
