Details: "The Monegasques endured a nightmare start in the Champions League: the team conceded three goals in the first half—a scenario they hadn’t faced since 2018. Back then, their opponent was also Club Brugge. That match ended in a 4-0 victory for the Belgians.

Now, Club Brugge lead 4-1. The Belgian side’s goals have come from Nicolo Tresoldi, Raphael Onyedika, Hans Vanaken, and Mamadou Diachon, while Monaco answered back with a debut goal from Ansu Fati.

Reminder: Monaco’s plane couldn’t take off for the Champions League match due to a failed air conditioner. The players had to leave the plane in their underwear.
