Olivier Giroud pulled on his keeper gloves after Mike Maignan was sent off to make a brilliant save and keep AC Milan’s 1-0 lead over Genoa in Serie A. 

Christian Pulisic thought he had provided the night’s entertainment after a drab game when he strike with three minutes to go in regular time.

The ex-Chelsea man controlled a cross from fellow American Yunus Musah before lashing home the eventual winner

Albert Gudmundsson then crashed a free kick against the bar from the edge of the box before Giroud brilliantly denied George Puscas just before the final whistle.

The French striker was called into action to deny Puscas, diving head first at a bouncing ball and snapping up the loose ends.  

In another twist Genoa also had their keeper, Josep Martinez sent off, when he was given a second yellow card for a late foul on Musah. 

On the being in goal Giroud said: ‘I’ve never experienced that in my career and I’m proud of the whole team. We fought like lions.’

‘The final stop? I made a great save at the end. Almost a goal. Calabria massacred my arm but it’s okay… I’m going to frame this shirt!

Milan moved two points clear at the top of the table after rivals Inter Milan threw away an early two-goal lead to draw 2-2 at home to Bologna earlier on Saturday.
