CORRECTED-Soccer-Reliable Giroud strikes again as France beat Iceland

Olivier Giroud once again proved invaluable for France, netting his 35th international goal as the world champions demolished Iceland 4-0 at home in their second Euro 2020 qualifier on Monday. Giroud, now alone in third place on France's all-time scoring list, added to Samuel Umtiti's early opener in the second half before Kylian Mbappe and Antoine Griezmann rounded off a routine win to put France on six points in Group H.

Turkey emerged as France's main rivals in the group when they thrashed Moldova 4-0 thanks to a Cenk Tosun double after beating Albania 2-0 last Friday. Albania have three points, like Iceland, after snatching a 3-0 away win against Andorra. (Reporting by Julien Pretot; Editing by Martyn Herman)
