Although three players including Giroud, Haraldesson and Mukao helped the team score, unfortunately, due to the loopholes in the defense line, they were also scored continuously by the opponent, and finally shook hands with 3-3.

With the goals of Dell and Akliusch and his opponent's own gift package, they finally won the opponent 3-1.

In terms of recent situation, Lille is in good shape recently, but he conceded too many goals in the first game of the season, which shows that he has many problems with his defense line; while Monaco has recovered recently, but his away game ability is mediocre. Judging from the current attitudes of all parties, they are in a proper manner. Based on the strength and recent situation of both sides, Monaco is still expected to win the opponent in this battle.
