First Monaco Derby, First Bragging Rights for Monaco United
History was guaranteed before the first whistle. Victory was not.
A large and expectant crowd filled Stade Didier Deschamps as Monaco United and ASMFF met in the first official women’s football derby ever played between two Monaco-based clubs. The atmosphere carried all the tension of an established rivalry, even though this was where the rivalry began.
