LIVE – Monaco-Brest: the Bretons push to get back together

Another restart error from Brest which benefits Monaco. Ilenikhena tries her luck and sees her shot pushed back by the foot of Bizot who leaves her team in the match.

Julien Le Cardinal is guilty of a great late mistake. It logically takes a yellow.

Tense shot from Fernandes who was going well, Majecki lays down well and catches it.

Jonas Martin replaced Hugo Magnetti.

Teze and Singo enter in place of Ben Seghir and Vanderson.

Served ideally, facing the goalkeeper, the new entrant Mama Baldé hits too hard and sees her shot go well above Majecki’s goals.

Brest wants to equalize and brings in Mama Baldé at the expense of Sima.

Ilenikhena comes into play instead of the Swiss Embolo.

Akliouche is again served to him in the area and looks for Embolo with a touch. The ball is poorly given, the Swiss is too short.

Mawissa is touched by Bizot in the area the referee whistles a penalty, but the VAR intervenes and signals an offside by the passer Embolo on the action.

It’s a feel-good starter. Kamory Doumbia makes himself available and is served in the right lane. He tries to cross but sees the ball blocked for a corner.

Another failure from Embolo. Launched from deep, the Swiss gets confused while trying to dribble past Bizot. The Brest goalkeeper grabs the ball.

Great game in transition from Brest in the final Monaco meters, Akliouche intervenes well to clear his team.

Brest kicks off this second half.

Brest brought in Kamory Doumbia in place of Romain Del Castillo.

Ben Seghir on the right serves Embolo at ground level. The Swiss alone misses and hits hard above Bizot’s goals.

A perfect cross from Del Castillo surprises Majecki who is forced to intervene. In the fall, Sima is there and tries his luck but Kehrer pushes the ball away as a last defense.

Brest pushes, Del Castillo is still in a good position on the right and looks for Ajorque with a returning cross. Vigilant Majecki comes out at the last minute to prevent Ajorque from putting his head in.

Golovin was in an ideal situation facing Bizot’s goal but suffered the impeccable return of Kenny Lala at his feet.

There was still fire in the last meters of Brest. Zakaria started well in depth and was cut off by Bizot who quickly came out at his feet.

What a shame… Beautiful corner from Brest which miraculously ends up at the feet of Julien Le Cardinal, well placed. The central defender shoots but completely misses and misses the target.

Since the Ajorque occasion, Brest has regained confidence and Monaco has lowered its pressing a notch. Adi Hütter shows first signs of annoyance.

The Brestois awakening perhaps? Well launched in depth, Del Castilo manages to cross on the right side and finds Ajorque’s head. The ball goes just over Majecki’s bar.

Monaco continues to corner the Brest defense and continues the passes in the heart of the game. Well launched in the left lane, Mawissa attempts a cross but Bizot seizes it without problem in the air.

He tried and it didn’t hold, Pierre Lees-Melou collapsed again, Fernandes has just replaced him.

The game is stopped again, Pierre Lees-Melou remains on the ground and complains about his calf, he requests a change. Nightmarish start to the match for Brest.

Big contact near the surface between Lees-Melou and Ben Seghir. The Brest midfielder let his foot drag on the ankle of the Moroccan international who remains on the ground. The referee has just stopped the game.

The Finisterians took a blow to the back of the head. Despite a convincing start to the match, Eric Roy’s men no longer touch the ball since Akliouche’s goal.

After the goal, Kenny Lala protested asking for a hand at the start of the action. The referee penalized him with a yellow.

The Stade Brestois center forward got into his match well. On a small festival from Vanderson in his right lane, the former Strasbourg player tackles well at the Brazilian’s feet to recover the ball.

Romain Del Castillo initiates a counter right side and tries to find Ajorque full axis with a low cross. Kehrer clears into touch to give his team some breathing space.

Very good start to the season for AS Monaco which alternates well between the championship and the European Cup. In Ligue 1, the principality club is second, six points behind leader PSG. A victory would allow them to get ahead of their direct competitors Marseille and Lille (3rd and 4th respectively) and to get closer to the Parisians before their match against Toulouse at 9 p.m.

He took advantage of the international break to rest, the Monegasque playing master Denis Zakaria will make his return with the armband in front of his audience against Brest. Absent for almost a month, his last match dates back to the victory against Red Star in the Champions League (5-1).

Celebrating in the Champions League and even practically qualified with 10 points in four days, in the championship Brest is 12th with 13 points and remains on two consecutive losses (Nice 1-0 and Montpellier 3-1). With three small points ahead of the Saint-Étienne play-off, the “Pirates” must give themselves some breathing space before welcoming Barça in C1 on Tuesday.

Eric Roy knows it, Brest must take points from Monaco. The Finisterians present themselves with their typical team, the trio Magnetti – Lees-Melou – Camara is aligned in the heart of the game, in front of Ajorque full axis is accompanied by Del Castillo and Sima on the wings.

Monaco in management before the Champions League. Before welcoming Benfica in the European Cup on Wednesday, Adi Hütter fields a competitive eleven but leaves some of his executives to rest. Like Caio Henrique replaced by Salisu. Lamine Camara is suspended and therefore replaced by Magassa in the middle associated with Zakaria who is back. In front, it is Embolo who starts at the forefront of the attack.

Hello everyone and welcome to this live commentary on lefigaro.fr for the meeting between AS Monaco and Brest at Louis II.
