Philippe Clément’s frustration is understandable. While ASM raced in the lead for 84 minutes, Kevin Volland scored an own goal, reviving Reims’ hopes. In additional time, Mbuku showered the Monegasques completely reversing the meeting. A defeat (1-2) difficult to digest for Clément.
“This is really naive”
Indeed, in the post-match press conference, the Belgian coach expressed his annoyance: “The players did a lot of good things without and with the ball. But, in the last seven minutes, we did mistakes that changed the game. The first goal, against our side, was bad luck. Then, Jean Lucas must not red. It is not necessary (…) At 1-1, the team did everything to win. But the players lost their minds, it’s really naive. It’s heavy not to be rewarded for the previous 84 minutes. It’s a bit of a hold-up. I’m therefore disappointed,” said the ASM coach. A bad operation which keeps the club from the Principality away from European places.
