Folarin Balogun’s first Monaco start couldn’t have gone much worse as the striker missed from the spot twice against Nice.
Monaco were stunned in a 1-0 loss against rivals Nice despite having two chances to take the lead from the penalty spot. Balogun, however, missed both of those chances in what was a disastrous full debut for his new club.
Balogun had scored in Monaco’s last match, a 2-2 draw away to Lorient, having made a cameo at home in a 3-0 win against Lens earlier this month. However, in his first real chance to make a first impression at his new club, Balogun struggled mightily in what will certainly go down as the worst day of his professional career so far.
