Full Story:
AS Monaco suffered another defeat away from home in Ligue 1, losing 2-1 to Lille and seeing their chances of reaching the podium diminish. The team showed a more offensive play in the second half but failed to come back from a 2-0 deficit. This loss, their sixth consecutive away defeat, follows their elimination from the Champions League against Benfica. Despite the support of over 700 Monaco fans, the team was unable to secure a victory. Lille took the lead early in the game and doubled their advantage just before halftime. Monaco managed to score just before the break, but their efforts in the second half were unable to secure an equalizer. This defeat is disappointing for Monaco, who have struggled to perform well away from home. They must quickly regroup as they face Reims next in a crucial match at Stade Louis-II. Coach Adi Hütter acknowledged that the result was not good and highlighted the team’s lack of decisiveness in both penalty areas. He also praised Lille’s defensive performance. Despite their current position in the league, Hütter remains positive and committed to fighting for better results.
