Revenge! Filipe Luís's Monaco come back to beat PSG for Flamengo | OneFootball

Flamengo idol beat the favorite for the Ligue 1 title with goals from Nazinho and Stanis Idumbo

Monaco (FRA) and PSG (FRA) faced off this Friday (04) in the third round of Ligue 1. The match at the Parc des Princes ended in a 2-1 comeback win for Filipe Luís’s team, the former Flamengo coach. As a result, the outcome has a special taste of revenge for the manager, who also led the Rubro-Negro in the 2025 Club World Cup final.

How did the first half between Monaco and PSG go?

The first half at the Parc des Princes ended 1-0 to PSG. That is because the goal came from Marquinhos, the Brazilian center back for the Paris side. So Monaco went into halftime trailing against the favorite for the national title.

What changed in the second half of the match?

In the second half, Monaco found the equalizer through Nazinho. Then the comeback came right after, with the decisive goal from Stanis Idumbo. So Filipe Luís beat the very team seen as the favorite to win Ligue 1, a competition in which Monaco leads with nine points.

Five matches and five wins for Filipe Luís at Monaco

With the result against PSG, Filipe Luís now has five matches and five wins in charge of Monaco. Therefore, the perfect record reinforces the strong form the coach has shown since arriving at the Principality club. At the same time, the positive run contrasts with the turbulent end of his spell at Flamengo, which ended in March.

Ligue 1 tribute video and the revenge against PSG

The win over PSG comes days after Ligue 1 posted a tribute video to Filipe Luís’s journey with Flamengo. The production looked back at the coach’s achievements in Rio de Janeiro up to his move into French football.

In this way, the comeback also carries the weight of direct revenge against PSG, Flamengo’s opponent in the 2025 Club World Cup final. However, Filipe Luís himself avoids directly comparing the two spells, each with its own distinct context and challenges.

What is Coluna do Fla’s take on the result?

The leader keeps going. Flamengo has a representative in the French Championship. It is very good to see Filipe Luís’s success. IDOL. By the way... No one gets away owing us,” said João Vítor Reis of Coluna do Fla.
