Euro 2020 Qualifiers: Iceland 0-1 France: Giroud's penalty earns Les Bleus hard win

Olivier Giroud netted the second-half penalty that gave France a hard-earned victory over Iceland in Reykjavik, in a Euro 2020 qualifier.


Olivier Giroud fired world champions France to a 1-0 victory in Reykjavik as Iceland lost a home qualifier for the first time in six years.

On the fringes of things at Chelsea, Giroud remains an integral part of France's plans eight months out from Euro 2020, and his 37th goal for his country came from the penalty spot midway through the second half.
