Strasbourg freine l’AS Monaco
L’AS Monaco a laissé ses premiers points de la saison sur la pelouse de Strasbourg ce samedi. Après trois victoires consécutives, les Monégasques ont dû se contenter d’un nul (1-1) à la Meinau, malgré un superbe but de Paris Brunner. Strasbourg confirme de son côté son bon début de championnat.
Le Racing met Monaco en difficulté
Strasbourg a rapidement imposé son rythme grâce à un pressing intense. Les Alsaciens ont gêné les Monégasques dans la construction et se sont procuré les meilleures occasions de la première période, notamment par Sebastian Nanasi et Gessime Yassine.
L’ASM a peiné à trouver des espaces et a également perdu Anis Soubeir sur blessure dès la 21e minute, remplacé par Matthis Abline. Malgré une pression strasbourgeoise plus forte avant la pause, les deux équipes sont rentrées aux vestiaires sur un score nul et vierge.
Brunner remet Monaco dans le match
Le Racing a finalement été récompensé au retour des vestiaires. Sur un coup franc d’Oso, Sadibou Sané a malencontreusement dévié le ballon de la tête dans son propre but, offrant l’avantage aux locaux (1-0, 52e).
Monaco a alors réagi et progressivement repris le contrôle des débats. À la 71e minute, Paris Brunner a remis les siens à hauteur d’une superbe frappe des vingt mètres, venue se loger dans la lucarne de Filip Jorgensen.
L’ASM a ensuite poussé pour arracher la victoire. Denis Zakaria a bien trouvé le chemin des filets à la 88e minute, mais son but a été refusé pour une position de hors-jeu. Une situation litigieuse dans la surface à la 90e minute aurait également pu permettre aux Monégasques d’obtenir un penalty.
Strasbourg et Monaco se quittent finalement sur un match nul (1-1). L’ASM abandonne ses premiers points de la saison mais reste invaincue, tandis que le Racing confirme sa bonne dynamique.

Former Kaizer Chiefs target leaves African giants
Mokwana, who Kaizer Chiefs were keen to sign before his move to Tunisia, has terminated his contract with Esperance after the two parties reached an amicable agreement.
The report states that the decision is linked to a registration dilemma at Espérance, with Mokwana now officially leaving the club, according to Lorenz Kohler.
ELIAS MOKWANA LEAVES ESPERANCE
Mokwana joined Espérance Sportive de Tunis in August 2024 after making a name for himself with Sekhukhune United in the Betway Premiership.
The winger had previously risen through the ranks with Platinum City Rovers, where his performances earned him a move to Sekhukhune United in 2022.

His move to Tunisia marked a major step in his career. Mokwana went on to make history by becoming the first South African player to win the Tunisian Ligue 1 title.
He also helped Espérance secure the Tunisian Cup and Tunisian Super Cup during his time at the club, while gaining valuable experience in the CAF Champions League.
WILL KAIZER CHIEFS POUNCE?
Mokwana spent the 2025/26 season on loan at Saudi Pro League club Al Hazem, where he gained further experience in another competitive league.
The 26 year old remains an important player for Bafana Bafana under Hugo Broos. His pace, dribbling ability and attacking threat have made him a regular option for the national team.
Mokwana’s departure from Espérance now leaves him facing an important decision over the next chapter of his club career.
With his international experience and previous success in Tunisia and Saudi Arabia, the winger is unlikely to remain without options for long.
