Olivier Giroud is adding to his tally in Qatar.

The Frenchman made it four goals in the 2022 FIFA World Cup after scoring a header in the 77th minute to give France a 2-1 lead over England.

Just minutes later, Harry Kane got a divine opportunity to equalize on his second penalty attempt of the game, but he sailed it over the crossbar.

Kane made his first attempt in comfortable style in the 54th minute, but that was not the case this time around.

He remains one goal away from surpassing Wayne Rooney with most goals all-time for England with 53.
