Arsenal boss Wenger delighted Giroud broke duck

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was delighted Olivier Giroud broke his duck in their Capital One Cup rout of Wolves.

Wenger says the goal will give the French striker a much-needed confidence boost.

Wenger said: "It was in everybody's mind that the sooner he gets it the better. Certainly in his mind much more than in others' minds. That is positive of course. It was a good finisher and he is a good finisher, Olivier. At the moment I believe he is looking for confidence again and that goal will help him. I expect him to take that confidence into the Premier League."
