Monaco 5 : 1

Étoile rouge de Belgrade Live~6 0~p>Against a weak Red Star Belgrade team, Monaco shone in particular thanks to a magnificent second half (5-1). In the middle of the first act, Minamino, launched in depth, took advantage of a bad alignment of the opposing defense to beat Ilic with a superb flat foot (1-0, 20th). Guilty of a lapse, the Monegasques were surprised by a penalty obtained and converted by Ndiaye (1-1, 26th). As the score was heading towards a draw, just before going into the locker room, Embolo, on a mistake by Spajic, slammed a beautiful half-volley (2-1, 45th + 3). Timid during the first 45 minutes, Monaco delighted their audience in the second half. With a wonderful strike, Singo, from 35 meters, found the opponent's top corner (3-1, 54th). Minamino, thanks to an offering from Embolo, offered himself a double (4-1, 70th). At the end of the game, Akliouche, who had been clumsy for a long time, also found the back of the net (5-1, 90th+5). The score could have been heavier. Embolo had a goal disallowed, Akliouche and Golovin hit the posts.
