At the heart of a disappointing 0-0, Lucas Chevalier stood out by brilliantly defending his cage. Jordan Teze did his team a disservice by receiving a red card. Discover the tops and flops.
Tops :
Knight man of the match
In a dull match, Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier particularly stood out. From the start of the first half, the former goalkeeper of the French Olympic team had to work against the numerous attacks from the Monegasque attackers, particularly those of Ben Seghir and Ilenikhena. Teze’s red card shortly after the hour mark allowed him to breathe a little and be calmer in the second half. Lille will in any case need him at a good level on Wednesday in the Champions League.
Ben Seghir again very strong
He has a string of good matches. While he continued to perform well against Montpellier and Rennes before the international break, Eliesse Ben Seghir confirmed this good form this Friday evening. Present in all the good offensive moves of his team, the young Moroccan almost was a passer several times in the game. Replaced by Maghnes Akliouche in the 78th minute, Monaco will undoubtedly expect a good match from him on Tuesday afternoon against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League.
Flops :
Lille attack dependent on Zhegrova
While it had scored in 6 of its first 7 championship matches, the Lille attack was very discreet on the Rock this Friday. After waiting until the 9th minute to pass the midfielder, Monaco goalkeeper Radoslaw Majecki was not called upon until the 11th minute of the match. The Lille attack was undoubtedly handicapped by the poor form of Jonathan David who returned from an international match in…Panama only two days ago and by the average performance of Angel Gomes. Lille will face Atletico on Wednesday with 7 injured.
Jordan Teze handicapped his team
An avoidable box. This is how we could describe the red card received by Jordan Teze in the 61st minute. While he had an average match, Jordan Teze was guilty of a big foul on Gudmundsson. If the fault cannot be disputed, the red of the Monegasque right side handicapped his team which had the upper hand over Lille and which in his presence could have gone for victory. Even if Adi Hütter did not bring in any defenders, the fate of the match could have been different if the Monegasques had remained with ten men.
