I have never in my life seen that a goal was disallowed for that. I dont know what kind of offside was that Giroud didnt even touch the ball and they called it.
I have just been looking at that decision on the replay. It's difficult to see but I don't think there was an offside for the cross where Giroud headed the ball just before the goal. If you look at the goal in this video, you will notice that at 2:09 Giroud lies on the ground in an offside position. As the shot comes his way, he makes an active movement to try and stand up or reach the ball. He is therefore in an offside position while doing that. It's a controversial decision, but still.

Too bad, I had a nice little AH0 bet on Milan that I lost. Had they drawn. I would have gotten my wager back at least. 

It must be feeling really sad to lose your bet. Maybe it was a risky choice but not an unwise one. Because I think it was obvious that the winner team would defeat their competitor by a one-goal difference. These teams are really close to each other in terms of power now. And I was expecting a balanced match. But Milan's loss surprised me. In San Siro, they should have been able to get a result that wouldn't make their supporters very sad.
