The unstoppable Wilfried Singo is your MVP against Paris

Thanks to an impressive performance including a record number of duels won, the Ivorian defender was named man of the match against Paris Saint-Germain (0-0) by the Rouge et Blanc fans on the AS Monaco App.

Impérial! In his second match as a starter since his return from AFCON, Wilfried Singo didn’t sweat the details. Already impressive in the win in Lens the previous weekend (2-3), the African champion impressed on the righ flank against PSG on Friday in the big match of the 24th round at the Stade Louis-II (0-0).

A record number of duels

However, the Ivorian defender did not have an easy task at kick-off, since he was responsible for muzzling… Kylian Mbappé. It was something he succeeded in doing perfectly, and even more, since he finished the match with 88% of duels won, a magnificent 15/17! This is the best ratio for a player with at least 15 duels played against Paris in a Ligue 1 match since Opta began analyzing the competition (2006-2007).

I must say that Wilfried Singo also played a big role (88 duels won, 15/17), perfectly muzzling Kylian Mbappé in the first period. I am really happy with the performance of the whole team.

Adi HütterOn his performance

Omnipresent in defense… as well as in the build-up

Not bad, especially when we add his 10 recoveries, four tackles made, as many interceptions and five clearances. But the Monegasque right back did not confine himself to defensive tasks, since he was at the origin of the action where Wissam Ben Yedder could have obtained a penalty for a handball by Achraf Hakimi (48′). With seven passes in the final third and three successful dribbles, including a sublime sombrero against Bradley Barcola, Wilfried Singo delivered a masterclass.

An otherworldly sombrero!

Even the Monegasque ball boy, U17 midfielder Chaihane Badoro, couldn’t believe his eyes! It was auite logical therefore to see our number 99 honored by the Rouge et Blanc fans on the AS Monaco App, with no less than 48% of the votes. He finished ahead of Radoslaw Majecki (19%), author of seven saves including two very important ones in the second half to deny Barcola (67′) and Vitinha (75′).

We had a good match collectively, we defended together, as a unit. I think it's a good result to get this point, even though we had several chances that we didn't manage to take advantage of. I'm happy despite everything because we managed a clean sheet.

The two would also have deserved to appear in The typical team of the 24th day of Ligue 1 alongside Youssouf Fofana. They will have to be satisfied with a nice hug at the final whistle. Daghe Wilfried for this first MVP! 🇲🇨
