In the Europa League, Alexander Nübel was unlucky for AS Monaco against Trabzonspor on Thursday evening. The Bayern loan caused a curious own goal.
AS Monaco is threatened with extinction in the Europa League. The Monegasque lost 4-0 at Trabzonspor on Thursday evening and are only third in Group H behind Turkey and Ferencvaros Budapest (three points ahead) who are tied on points.
A big mistake by Bayern loan Alexander Nübel opened the series of goals conceded in the 44th minute. The 26-year-old wanted to pass a back pass to the left, but team-mate Malang Sarr intervened because he wanted to offer himself for a pass from his keeper. The ball then bounced off the defender into the Monegasque goal.
In the second half, Monaco then conceded three more goals (48th/57th/69th), which sealed the clear defeat.
So far, Nübel had played a strong season in the French goal. The goalkeeper is on loan to the Ligue 1 club until the end of the season before he returns to Bayern Munich, where he is still under contract until 2025. However, Nübel recently clearly emphasized that he does not want to return to Munich as long as Manuel Neuer is number one between the posts there.
