"Egan-Riley's sending-off in the 29th minute put them on the back foot, as the former Burnley man scythed down Malick Fofana as the last defender.

"Goals from Maghnes Akliouche and Folarin Balogun put Monaco - who sold Eliesse Ben Seghir to Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday - 2-0 up, only for substitute Dilane Bakwa and Joaquin Panichelli to score within three second-half minutes for Strasbourg. However, former Liverpool forward Takumi Minamino met Akliouche's cross with a diving header to put Monaco back in front in the 96th minute, then Strasbourg saw midfielder Rabby Nzingoula sent off in the ninth minute of stoppage time as their perfect start was halted."
