Champions League
AS Monaco lost 2-0 to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday in Group A of the UEFA Champions League on Matchday 5, allowing Club Brugge, which plays Wednesday night in Dortmund (9 pm) spend the European winter.
The Rocher team still had a slim hope of finishing third but that will not be the case. Club Brugge, which has taken 4 points in direct confrontations against Monaco, will play at least the knockout stage of the Europa League.
Yuri Tielemans and Nacer Chadli were titular at the Principalities.
Thierry Henry opted for a defense at 5 with Chadli left side and a median line at 3 with Tielemans in the axis. The Monegasque coach has also launched several young people: Giulian Biancone, Noah Mbadengo and Benoît Badiashile. The latter will remember his first tenure in C1: he scored against his side by deflecting a shot wound Koke (2nd, 1-0). This early goal did not defeat the Monegasques but a resumption of the outside of the left foot of Antoine Griezmann nailed them (24th, 2-0). The Frenchman is obviously at home at Wanda Metropolitano, having scored 11 goals in his last 11 home games in the Champions League.
Monaco, who only had a shot not framed in the first period (Badiashile 45th), tried more often his chance at the recovery without worrying Jan Oblak. Tielemans was even warned for having retained Angel Correa (54th) and Chadli left his place to Sofiane Diop (63rd). The score did not change while Monaco received a penalty for a hand foul by Stefan Savic on a Tielemans shot. While the Atletico Montenegrin defender left the field (82nd, 2 yellow cards), Radamel falcao missed his shot of eleven meters (83).
