The ten minutes after the break were decisive in the outcome of the match. I think the second yellow card given to Moatasem Al-Musrati is harsh, because he was not aggressive,&#8221; reflected the Austrian manager.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/adi-hutter-1-2-1024x574.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-277334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/adi-hutter-1-2-1024x574.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/adi-hutter-1-2-535x300.jpg 535w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/adi-hutter-1-2.jpg 1160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>\u00a9 AS Monaco<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a difficult red, even if he shouldn&#8217;t have made that gesture. Despite everything, I liked the reaction of the team, who fought and tried everything to reverse the result. That&#8217;s what I said in the locker room to the players, it&#8217;s only 0-1 and we will fight in the return to get this qualification.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-scuro-s-reactions\">Scuro&#8217;s Reactions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the mixed zone, the Monaco General Manager, Thiago Scuro, also shared his thoughts, stating: &#8220;I think it is important that I speak for several reasons. The first is that we are only in the first round of this double confrontation, and that we have the cards in hand to turn the situation around in Lisbon and qualify for the next round, which remains our objective. We have the players and the qualities to hope for another outcome, and we will take our responsibilities to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"fr\" dir=\"ltr\">La r\u00e9action de Thiago Scuro, Directeur G\u00e9n\u00e9ral de l\u2019AS Monaco, apr\u00e8s la rencontre \ud83c\udf99\ufe0f<br><br>\u2023 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ASMSLB?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ASMSLB<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/S4RV2HFiOm\">pic.twitter.com\/S4RV2HFiOm<\/a><\/p>&mdash; AS Monaco \ud83c\uddf2\ud83c\udde8 (@AS_Monaco) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AS_Monaco\/status\/1889824419738161228?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 12, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSecondly, I will try to find the right words to explain things with respect. This is the second time against Benfica that decisions have had a strong impact on the result of the match. It is not good for anyone and for the quality of the game. We are in the Champions League and have the right to expect something else. When the referee is at the centre of the match, it is because something is not working, and that is what we experienced tonight. Moatasem Al-Musrati&#8217;s gesture should not have happened, even if he was not aggressive towards him. This second yellow was not necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-key-stats\">Key Stats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By the numbers, the fact Benfica held the ascendancy in terms of expected goals (2.19 to 0.39), total shots (23 to 6), shots inside the box (16 to 5), touches inside the box (39 to 12) and overall duels won (60 to 54) further underlined what a tough night at the office it was for the short-handed Monaco.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-big-upcoming-seven-days\">Big Upcoming Seven Days<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Up next for Les Monegasques is a key Ligue 1 clash with Nantes, which is followed by the second leg at the Estadio da Luz, where Monaco will be without Al-Musrati, Vanderson and Zakaria due to suspension, in their quest to triumph against the odds.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\"
