Monaco and Lille part back-to-back

A little shock to return to club football. This Friday evening, AS Monaco hosted Lille in the opening clash of the eighth day of Ligue 1. A meeting which saw the two teams involved in the Champions League leave with a goalless draw. The Principality club played the last half hour outnumbered following the logical expulsion of Jordan Teze. ASM remains three points ahead of PSG and could already lose the lead in the championship. LOSC grabs a point and comes back level with OM and Reims.

Monaco was better in the game, red could have changed everything

From the start of the match, Eliesse Ben Seghir will seize the ball at the entrance to the penalty area before launching a heavy shot from the right which will pass over the cages of Lucas Chevalier. If AS Monaco largely dominates the first minutes of play, Jonathan David will show up in the tenth minute of play. Not enough, however, to worry Radoslaw Majecki. Lille fails to show a good face at the start of the match and will make a series of mistakes. At the half-hour mark, a new tile will arrive for the visitors, with the exit of Mitchell Bakker due to injury. In the 37th minute of play, Jordan Teze will benefit from a lot of pressure from his teammates to enter the Lille area and send a heavy shot which will end up in the sky of the Stade Louis II. A few seconds later, the Dutchman was guilty of a huge sole on Ayyoub Bouaddi. Despite the VAR check, no red card for the Monegasque, who is doing very, very well.

Adi Hütter’s men will return to the pitch with the same intentions. In the 56th minute of play, Alexsandro lost a dangerous ball. More fear than harm however since Ben Seghir’s head goes over. However, it’s getting closer for Monaco… which will be reduced to ten immediately for an ugly (clumsy) gesture by Jordan Teze. his knee ends in the head of Gabriel Gudmundsson. In the 73rd minute, Aleksandr Golovin played a touch in the opponent’s penalty area to find Krépin Diatta. Alone, the Senegalese international fails to find the target. Lille will then start to come out and try to carry out the hold-up. Without success. The score will not change and the two teams part with a goalless draw.
