By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
AS Monaco claimed a 1-2 win in Paris on Friday, with goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky and match-winner Stanis Idumbo the standout performers.
A composed away performance at the Parc des Princes on Friday night handed AS Monaco a 1-2 Ligue 1 victory over PSG, with two players taking the lion's share of the credit. Goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky was exceptional between the posts, making a string of crucial saves to keep Monaco in the match during spells of sustained Parisian pressure.
Stanis Idumbo proved the difference at the other end, scoring the winning goal to seal three points on the road. The result is a significant statement from Monaco, who have now taken maximum points from a fixture that has historically tested the Principality's club to its limits.
Spoken words from within the camp left little ambiguity about where the plaudits belonged, with Hradecky's display drawing particular admiration from his teammates. For supporters following the club from Monaco or across the wider region, a win in Paris will feel like one of the more meaningful results of the early season.
