France coach Didier Deschamps described the whistling of Olivier Giroud during his side's friendly win over Cameroon as "unfair".

The Arsenal striker was on the scoresheet as the Euro 2016 hosts claimed a 3-2 victory in Nantes on Monday.

Giroud has scored five goals in his past six internationals, but is still seemingly yet to win over the fans.

With his team preparing to host the Euros, Deschamps said the criticism of the 29-year-old was unwarranted.

"You hear what you want. The whistles were unfair tonight, but in Biarritz, he was applauded. People can be conditioned," he said.

"But Olivier scored again. When you say it, you are not helpful. You are free to say what you want but this is not necessarily the truth."
