Centering a single column using bootstrap 4 grid system [duplicate]

I am trying to use the bootstrap 4 grid system to center a single column. In bootstrap 3 I was able to do:

<div class="col-md-10 col-md-offset-2">
</div>

In bootstrap 4 the same does not work even when using the new offset class: offset-md-2.

The following works, but something feels wrong about having empty columns on the page, just to center a col-md-5.

<div class="row">
    <div class="col"></div>
    <div class="col-md-5 align-self-center">
        <img src="img/myimage.gif" style="width: 100%;">
    </div>
    <div class="col"></div>
</div>
