Monaco drops two points with draw against Strasbourg

Monaco dropped two precious points for the first time this season in Ligue 1, drawing 1-1 with hosts Strasbourg in Matchday 4, which halted their streak of three consecutive victories. Senegalese defender Sadio Sane inadvertently put Strasbourg ahead in the 52nd minute, shortly after the start of the second half, before German striker Paris Bruner equalized for the principality side with a brilliant 20-meter strike. Bruner, who represents the youth national team, extended his tally to five goals in six matches for Monaco across all competitions this season. Monaco remained top of the table with 10 points, but now leads only on goal difference over second-placed Rennes, who had beaten Marseille 1-0 in the opening match of the round.
