Olivier Giroud showed his boundless class once again this week with a supreme goal against South Africa.

The French star was at his sparkling best as the world champions welcomed Bafana Bafana for what turned out to be a rather one-sided friendly.

Kylian Mbappe was playing party football, running riot all night long in front of his adoring home fans.

However, Giroud caught the eye just as much with his incredible second-half strike.

Giroud showed unreal control to bring the ball under his spell before carving at an opening in the box and slotting home.

It was just another in a long list of brilliant strikes from Giroud who has made a habit of scoring dazzling goals over the course of his career.

In the aftermath of the South Africa goal, a video has emerged on Twitter showing Giroud's greatest career goals and it truly is a thing of beauty.

From overheads to scorpion kicks, Giroud simply doesn't know how to score the proverbial 'boring goal'.

In fact, if you were to go to an alien planet and show them just the compilation below, you could hardly blame them for thinking Giroud was the greatest footballer to ever live.

Unreal - it's just an embarrassment of riches when it comes to fantastic goals.

Couple that with his unerring eye for a goal in the so-called big games and you have possibly one of the most underrated players of our time.

Giroud could always be relied upon to get the business done and it's no wonder he has always been such a fan favourite wherever he has plied his trade.

He may not have the snap, crackle and pop that comes with the likes of Mbappe, Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo but there can be no doubting his phenomenal quality.

Be it in the colours of Arsenal, the blue of Chelsea or in his beloved French strip, the world of football is a better place for having Olivier Giroud in it.
