Monaco coach Adi Hütter admits that his team has been conceding too many goals in recent matches. Indeed, the Monégasques have allowed at least one goal in the majority of their games.
Specifically, in the case of Nantes, there’s an additional factor: over the past few years, these two clubs have frequently ended their matches in draws, with scorelines like 1-1, 2-2, and even 3-3. And once again today, it’s 2-2.
Both teams had moments where they missed clear chances as if under some kind of curse. Almost like a spell, wouldn’t you agree?
Best players of the match:
- Kassoum Ouattara
The first half and even the beginning of the second were far from confident for Monaco. The two identical goals conceded were clear evidence of that. The only player who stood out in attack was Kassoum. He distinguished himself with precise crosses into the opponent’s penalty area. In the first half, he created two excellent chances for Embolo and Zakaria, but unfortunately, both shots missed the target.
- Wilfried Singo
Wilfried clearly outperformed his teammates defensively, recording 10 defensive actions, 5 clearances, and 2 interceptions. His duel statistics are also notable: he won 6 out of 10—a solid, if not extraordinary, performance, which complemented his overall defensive contributions. His assist to Embolo for the first goal also deserves recognition.
- Mohamed Camara
The main reason Camara was one of the best players today was his work in duels. Winning duels is one of the most critical aspects of the game, especially in midfield, and losing them can be the quickest way to lose a match. Today, Mohamed was highly effective in the center of the pitch, disrupting opponents and winning 7 out of 10 duels, primarily in that area. Notably, he won all his aerial duels, going 3-for-3.
As for his assist, it came from a corner. However, the goal was largely due to a mistake by the goalkeeper Lopes, who came out to intercept but missed the ball, leaving an open net for Salisu to capitalize on.
