AC Milan produce a 'Giroud 9' goalkeeper jersey for fans to buy after Olivier Giroud's heroics against Genoa - but the shirt is already SOLD OUT

AC Milan have produced goalkeeper jerseys bearing the name of striker Olivier Giroud after the Frenchman's last-ditch heroics versus Genoa on Saturday.

The Milanese club's No 1 Mike Maignan picked up a late red card during the San Siro clash for a foul on Caleb Ekuban in stoppage time, after the club had used up all of its substitutions.

Stefano Pioli then tapped the World Cup winner to pull on the gloves, donning Maignan's distinctive green shirt.

The visitors threatened against 10-man Milan, with Albert Gudmundsson's freekick nicking the bar, but it was Giroud's quick-thinking that saw the former Chelsea star block Genoa's final run at an equaliser.
