MI-TIME! (0-1)
MONACO ADVANTAGE! (0-1)
This part doesn’t amount to anything. Throughout this first half, there were numerous opportunities that gave the impression that the match might go one way or the other.
The Monegasques showed lucidity and took the lead with their first shot on target of the match.
2 more minutes
And there will be two minutes of additional time in this first act.
Monaco at the top of Ligue 1…
And provisionally, the Rouge & Blanc take the lead in the French elite with 17 points, one more than OGC Nice, who returned with a new success once morest Metz earlier this Saturday.
GOAL FOR MONACO! (0-1)
JAKOOOOBS !
The full-backs make the difference in this opening score! Diatta, on the right side, crosses to the far post. Balogun is too short. The cross is blocked once, a second time, and the piston Jakobs sends the ball into the back of the net! Great move!
AS Monaco takes the lead and starts this game! (0-1)
Stat’
7 shots for the locals. 5 for visitors. We feel that the match might swing to one side or the other.
Off-side
Offside position from Balogun on this little cross from Jakobs towards the penalty spot.
For the moment, the former Reims striker is well muzzled.
Daramy tented at the chance
In vain. It’s blocked by Mirapan who is putting in an excellent performance for the moment.
BALOGUN NOT FAR!
HOT !
It was very hot on this corner but Balogun was beaten by Okumu in the fall.
Nakamura Center… for nothing
No one to take this deep cross from Nakamura into the box. Except Köhn.
Drop in pace
Slight drop in pace for a few minutes. The duels remain muscular but the percussion is less numerous.
Perfect Kohn
Attentive, the goalkeeper jumps higher than everyone and definitively stops this Reims sequence.
On the other side !
The Monaco goalkeeper deflects this ball. Ito will hit the corner from left to right this time.
New corner for the Rémois
Great call from Ito. So is control. And its center is moved away by the head of Maripan. Corner then.
Hand of Diatta
The referee returns the ball to the locals for a hand fault by Diatta. With slow motion, there’s nothing.
Corner for nothing
The danger is kept away from the head by captain Yunis Abdelhamid.
Corner for AS Monaco
Obtained thanks to a first-intention strike from a senior member of the house: Mr. Balogun.
De Smet strike
Supporting foot not planted enough in the ground, back a little behind, this is why De Smet’s shot from the edge of the area goes over the frame. Still 0-0!
Crazy pressing
All the balls end up at the feet of Will Still’s men. Besides, there is discussion on the Monegasque bench. The visitors are unable to get out of the Reims super dry cleaners.
CRAZY OPPORTUNITY!
OLD!
It’s the German school: lie down but stay with your arms crossed for a long time. This sublime save allows the AS Monaco goalkeeper to win his duel once morest Nakamura. This is clearly the biggest opportunity of the game at the moment!
Frappe de Teuma
Guillermo Maripan goes high and deflects this ball. Better still, the ball is back at the feet of the Monegasques.
Faute offensive d’Ito
Will Still doesn’t agree but the referee is sure of him. Clever, Ismail Jakobs easily lets himself fall on this little skirmish from Ito who wanted to eliminate him. The ball is returned to the visitors.
Corner for nothing
Immediately keep fists away from the Monegasque goalkeeper.
Corner for Reims
Following good work from Ito, the Rémois obtain the first corner of the game.
Phase d’observation
Both teams take their time to build their attacks and exchange short passes.
KICK-OFF !
Let’s go to Reims! (0-0)
It was the visitors, in black, who kicked off this match counting for the 8th day of Ligue 1! Magnificent atmosphere!
Kick-off is imminent!
The players enter the Auguste Delaune pitch, accompanied by the referee of the match, the Frenchman Hakim Ben El Hadj.

Before returning to Reims, Folarin Balogun went through all the emotions in a month in Monaco
Folarin Balogun returns to the Auguste Delaune stadium on Saturday. Revelation of last season at Stade de Reims, he must now confirm at AS Monaco. Unhappy following his two missed penalties once morest Nice, “Balo” nevertheless remains a threat to the Reims defense.
