PSG will still have to wait. After two draws to start its season, the Parisian club hoped to finally achieve its first victory this Friday against Monaco. Without Ousmane Dembélé, left on the bench at kick-off, the Parisians quickly took control of the debates. After several chances at the start of the match, Marquinhos opened the scoring in the 31st minute on a cross from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Long uninspired in the last gesture, Monaco nevertheless showed good things. The Monegasques pushed before the break without managing to sufficiently worry PSG. Luis Enrique’s men maintained their advantage until half-time and seemed to have done the hard part.

But everything changed upon returning from the locker room. After starting the second half in favor of the Parisians, Monaco equalized in the 58th minute thanks to Nazinho, who headed home a cross. PSG tried to react, but were ultimately punished once again. In the 72nd minute, Idumbo gave the Monegasques the lead.
Luis Enrique tried to change the course of the match with the entries of Ferran Torres, Mika Godts and Ousmane Dembélé. Without success. Despite Parisian pressure until the final whistle, PSG failed to come back. Beaten 2-1, the capital club conceded its first defeat of the season and still remains winless after three days.
