UCL: Monaco Shock 10-Man Barcelona with 2-1 Champions League Win

Barcelona suffer shock Champions League loss to Monaco...

Monaco pulled off a stunning 2-1 Champions League win over 10-man Barcelona, thanks to goals from Maghnes Akliouche and George Ilenikhena, who scored on his debut.

Monaco secured a remarkable 2-1 Champions League victory over Barcelona, despite the Catalan giants' dominance. Eric Garcia's early red card shifted momentum in Monaco's favor.

Maghnes Akliouche capitalized on Marc-Andre ter Stegen's poor clearance to give Monaco the lead. Barcelona's teenage sensation Lamine Yamal equalized with a well-crafted goal.

Ilenikhena's Dream Debut Sinks Barcelona

However, 18-year-old George Ilenikhena stole the show with his 71st-minute winner, blasting past Ter Stegen after Vanderson's pinpoint long ball.

Monaco had additional chances, including Vanderson's edge-of-the-box strike and Takumi Minamino's deflected effort.

A late penalty decision was overturned via VAR, denying Folarin Balogun a potential third goal.
