A misunderstanding, a gag goal, a misunderstanding, a goal goal: call it what you want, it is in any case one of the images of the evening of European cups. And, unfortunately, it is to the disadvantage of a French team. On the ground of Trabzonspor on behalf of the 4th day of the group stage of the Europa League, AS Monaco offered their opponents the opener at the very end of the first period.
On a seemingly innocuous action, with a simple back pass from Axel Disasi to his goalkeeper Alexander Nübel, everything changed. The German goalkeeper of ASM then makes a pass to the left, in power, probably towards his side Caio Henrique. Problem: on the trajectory is Malang Sarr who hit the ball trying to avoid it and… deflected it into his own net. The crestfallen face of the young French defender necessarily contrasted with the happy faces and raised fists of the Turks, who certainly did not ask for so much.
This goal will in any case have undermined the match of the Monegasques, heavily defeated this Thursday evening (4-0).
