Striker Olivier Giroud insists age is no barrier to improvement and France’s new record scorer is targeting many more goals in his country’s colors at the FIFA World Cup quarter-final.

The 36-year-old pulled clear of Thierry Henry’s 51-goal national-team haul when he opened the scoring in a routine 3-1 Round of 16 victory over Poland.
