In the recent Ligue 1 match on the 8th day, events unfolded rapidly. Reims seized an early lead, capitalizing on Subasic’s weak clearance, as Antoine Devaux found the net within just 3 minutes.
Monaco, however, swiftly responded, leveling the score with a remarkable free kick from Moutinho. Notably, this marked the first instance in which a player other than Rivière (6 goals) and Falcao (7 goals) contributed to Monaco’s tally, as the duo had been responsible for all 13 goals in the preceding 7 matches.
The match has been an entertaining spectacle so far, featuring dynamic ball movement from both sides. Reims faced a setback with Atar’s first-half exit due to injury, prompting the introduction of Floyd Ayité as his replacement.
