O Monaco confirmou o favoritismo ao bater o Nordsjaelland nesta quinta-feira, por 2 a 0, no Stade Louis II. O jogo foi válido pela terceira rodada da Conference League. Foi uma partida em que os donos da casa dominaram amplamente e permitiram só um chute certo do rival, Mathys Detourbet foi o nome do jogo, com um gol e uma assistência.
A equipe do brasileiro Filipe Luis, que acumula quatro rodadas sem vitória no Campeonato Francês, mantém campanha impecável na competição europeia: três vitórias em três jogos. O Nordsjaelland soma apenas dois pontos até agora.
No 4-4-2, o Monaco ditou o ritmo desde o apito inicial e teve 58% de posse de bola, diante de um adversário que pouco criou. A vantagem apareceu aos 33 do primeiro tempo: Detourbet marcou após receber assistência de Takumi Minamino.
No começo da etapa final, a torcida viu o time chegar a marcar duas vezes, mas o VAR revisou os dois lances e anulou os gols.
Sem levar sustos atrás, o Monaco fez mudanças para oxigenar o time. Aos 33, Matthis Abline entrou no lugar de Folarin Balogun e, aos 46, marcou o segundo gol, em passe de Detourbet.
O Monaco volta ao Campeonato Francês no domingo, diante do Le Mans. O Nordsjaelland, pela Conference League, recebe o Panathinaikos na quinta-feira, dia 26.
