A do-everything performance from Lamine Camara sees him named MVP against PSG
He was once again everywhere at once. In line with his recent performances, as in the Champions League playoffs against PSG, Lamine Camara was once again impressive against the same opponent, allowing the Rouge et Blanc to win at the Parc des Princes (1-3). It was also a performance applauded by the fans on the AS Monaco App who awarded him the title of MVP.
A far-reaching display 🐙
It was a well-deserved title, as the Monaco midfielder shone brightly in the middle of the park and dominated Paris Saint-Germain’s, winning 10 out of 14 duels, making two successful tackles, and intercepting three passes. These already impressive figures were further enhanced by a staggering 13 ball recoveries, the most in the match. He was in full attacking mode, and also came close to scoring the goal of the season.
An incredible solo run 🏃♂️
Just as the capital club had narrowed the gap, the reigning AFCON champions seized the ball again at the edge of their penalty area, before embarking on a 70-meter run that culminated in a shot that Matvei Safonov deflected with difficulty for a corner (72′). Camara himself took the resulting corner, which led to the third goal from Folarin Balogun (1-3, 73′).
A second MVP of the season 🏆
Having been instrumental in the decisive goal, the number 15 for Monaco also touched the ball 72 times – the highest total for the club – completed six passes in the final third, delivered four crosses, and drew five fouls – another record. This outstanding performance earned him the MVP award for the second time this season, with 76% of the vote, ahead of Maghnes Akliouche, who opened the scoring, and Balo’. Bravo Lamine! 👏
