Ex-AC Milan coach Sacchi hails French World Cup pair Theo and Giroud

Former AC Milan coach Arrigo Sacchi has been impressed by French pair Theo Hernandez and Olivier Giroud at the World Cup.

The pair have been key in France's run to the World Cup final.

Sacchi enthused: “Theo respects his left-back duties more, when he is at Milan, it's difficult to understand if he is a defender, a winger or a striker.

“Giroud is an amazing professional and he deserves this satisfaction."

On Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann, he added: “He's been extraordinary, he hasn't gotten a game wrong. Adrien Rabiot did well too and France felt his absence against Morocco."
