When you have lifted the World Cup across a cult-hero-like club career at the highest level in Europe, what better way to enjoy your advancing years than bagging a stunner in MLS?
Former French international striker Olivier Giroud has finally gotten off the mark for LAFC with a delicious free-kick strike during first-half action away at Portland Timbers.

The 38-year-old target man, who enjoyed himself during postings with storied clubs the likes of Arsenal, Milan, and Chelsea, produced a moment of magic from just outside the area to cut the Timbers’ 2-0 lead in half before the halftime interval.
It’s quality like this that proves you never lose your edge, with Giroud’s effort surely going down as a Goal of the Season candidate, adding this to a goals catalog that features quite a few gems.
Champagne stuff from the Chambéry-born striker.
