During the match between Real Madrid and AC Milan a corner was awarded to AC Milan. The corner was conceded by Real Madrid's player Fran GarcÃa meaning that the ball went out of play over the goal line after being last touched by GarcÃa, resulting in a corner kick for AC Milan. Corner kicks can be dangerous situations for the defending team, as the attacking team gets an opportunity to deliver the ball into the penalty area, potentially creating scoring opportunities. Defending corner kicks requires good positioning and organization from the defending team to prevent the attacking team from capitalizing on the set-piece situation. AC Milan player Olivier Giroud attempted a left-footed shot from outside the box. The shot was taken from a direct free kick situation where the ball was placed at a certain distance from the goal and Giroud had the chance to take a direct shot on goal without any defensive wall in front of him. However despite his effort Giroud shot narrowly missed the target going to the right of the goal. It was a close attempt but unfortunately he couldn find the back of the net on this occasion. Free-kicks can be valuable opportunities for a team to score and Giroud attempt was an example of how players try to take advantage of such set-piece situations to create scoring chances.
