Chelsea coach hails giroud as he finally end's goal drought in Chelsea Europa league win over bat borisov

MAURIZIO SARRI HAILS CHELSEA MATCH-WINNER OLIVIER GIROUD.Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has praised striker Oliver Giroud, following his match-winning performance against BATE Borisov.
The Blues secured qualification for the Europa League last-32 on Thursday night, edging out their opponents 1-0 in Belarus to keep up their 100 per cent record in the competition.It was Giroud’s solitary strike that proved to be the difference between the two sides and Sarri lauded the Frenchman in his post-match press conference.Giroud’s winner was his first goal of the season, in his 12th appearance in all competitions, with many often critical of his goalscoring ability.Sarri clearly values him as far more than a poacher, however, with his hold-up play and aerial ability often providing a greater effect on the team than the more prolific Alvaro Morata.

Chelsea host Everton on Sunday afternoon as they look to stay unbeaten in this season’s Premier League – it will be interesting to see if Sarri retains Giroud up front.
