Arsenal News: Olivier Giroud Wins FIFA Puskas Award

The Best FIFA Football Awards were held in London yesterday where all of football's finest came together to see who could add more to their trophy collection. 

We saw Cristiano, Messi, Buffon, and the rest of them, but we also saw Olivier Giroud win the FIFA Puskas award, given to the best goal scored in Europe for that year. This year's award went to Giroud for his beautiful scorpion kick against Crystal Palace in January this year, which earned him all the plaudits and gave the Arsenal some false hope. 

It was a fantastic team goal which started off with a Giroud flick on from the opposite end of the pitch and was sealed with a fantastic finish by Giroud again.  

What's ironic about his goal is that it didn't even win Premier League goal of the month in January. I would love to see Giroud try and get more playing time here and there and hopefully he bags some more classy goals like this one.
