Many have criticised Oliver Giroud for his field appearances, while others have criticised Coach Deschamps, why he repeatedly believed the formation of a football player who never risked the opposing gate.

But France managed to be world champion this month, even with the contribution of the shadowed assailants, despite his work and movement in the green field helping the team not little.

Chelsea football player made his contribution to the fantastic journey of “bluve” to the Moscow final, and certainly in the 90 minutes won against Croats. But he did it not as everyone thought, with goals.

In a team that includes Mbpe or Greeezmann, the weight of the offensive unit is not held on the shoulders of a single player. But this World's statistics are ruthless with Oliver Giroud.

Not only did Chelsea's football player fail to achieve a goal but it is surprising that Coach Deschamps took it in formation even when everyone opposed it. Giroud failed to hit even once in the gate -- a controversial clue to a player who carried a heavy weight on the world's champion team.

In addition to 20 minutes of debut to Australia, Giroud failed to target the rival's cadre at another 6 matches that led France to the World throne. To Peru, Denmark, Argentina and Uruguay, he played for 90 minutes, while with Belgium and Croatia almost the whole game.

Giroud did not leave his mark, but years later he will be remembered as world champion, with or without goals.
