JAKARTA - Paris Saint-Germain was defeated by AS Monaco 2-0 at the Parc des Princes in the 26th Ligue 1 match, Monday morning Western Indonesia Time.
As quoted from Antara, with this disappointing result, PSG failed to cut the distance from the top standings, Lille. Kylian Mbappe and friends are now in third place with a collection of 54 points or four points adrift of Lille.
As for Monaco, this victory makes them unbeaten in the last 11 matches. Now the team made by Niko Kovac is securing fourth place with 52 points.
PSG, who impressed against Barcelona in the Champions League, was even sluggish in this match. In fact, they had to concede when the game entered the 6th minute.
Monaco's goal came when young player Sofiane Diop successfully completed Ruben Aguilar's header in front of Keylor Navas' goal-mouth.

On the other hand, it seems as if PSG is having trouble penetrating Monaco's defense. They often waste opportunities when they enter the penalty box.
Mbappe's presence in the match against Barca was so impressive that he didn't seem to be able to see it in this match. Even Monaco almost doubled their lead, but lucky for PSG, Axel Disasi's header in a corner was too weak.
In the second half, Monaco again surprised the host public by scoring a fast goal for the second time.

When the game has only been running for six minutes, starting from chaos in the penalty box, the ball that Ander Hererra was about to throw away was intercepted by Guillermo Maripan and finished with a measured kick. Monaco led 2-0.
The dropped PSG tried to catch up by increasing the tempo of the game. Moise Kean opened up a chance in the 60th minute, but his heading was still within reach of goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte.
Until the remaining time, the two teams took turns carrying out attacks but all of them did not really threaten the goal. Until the score was 2-0 to victory for Monaco, it remained.
