🔥 Lille’s 38-year-old veteran Olivier Giroud just proved age is nothing but a number after pulling off a stunning bicycle kick that left West Ham fans in shock 🤯⚽.
In Lille’s pre-season clash against the Hammers, Giroud showed exactly why he’s one of the most iconic strikers of his generation. The ball didn’t even touch the ground — he chested it down, twisted in mid-air, and volleyed it straight into the back of the net! 💥🙌
It was pure Giroud magic — his trademark finish that has graced highlight reels for over a decade 🎯✨.
The game ended 1-1 after 90 minutes, but it was West Ham who had the last laugh 😅, edging out Lille 6-5 on penalties.

⚒️ The Hammers now turn their focus to the Premier League, with their season opener away to newly-promoted Sunderland 🏟️ — and if Giroud keeps pulling off goals like this, Lille’s opponents better watch out this season!
