Histoire complète :
AS Monaco secured a crucial victory against Bologna (1-0) in a tense and fiercely contested match, maintaining their undefeated record in the top 8 of the Champions League. The victory comes at a crucial time for Monaco’s qualification in the Champions League play-offs, after suffering two consecutive defeats in the league. With this win, Monaco now has 10 points and remains unbeaten in the competition.
In a match that saw Monaco dominate but struggle to convert their chances, Thilo Kehrer emerged as the hero, scoring the winning goal in the 87th minute from an Aleksandr Golovin corner. This victory marks the first time a team has won on Bologna’s home ground in a European competition. It exemplifies Monaco’s ability to overcome challenges, a trait that has become synonymous with the team.
Coach Adi Hütter expressed his satisfaction with the win, highlighting the team’s strong performance in the first half and their resilience in the second half to prevent Bologna from creating opportunities. He also praised Thilo Kehrer and Breel Embolo for their contributions to the team.
With this victory, Monaco sits comfortably in third place in their group with 10 points. Their unbeaten start to the season in Europe is an impressive feat, and they have joined Paris Saint-Germain as the only French teams to have achieved 10 points in their opening four Champions League matches. This success brings them closer to the crucial play-off stage.
Following this win, Monaco looks to carry forward the momentum and put their recent league defeats behind them as they face Strasbourg in Ligue 1. This victory in the Champions League could be the turning point they need to keep their European dreams alive.
