Alright, let’s talk about this soccer match, the one with Monaco and Nantes. I heard some folks talkin’ about it, so I figured I’d tell ya what I know. Don’t expect no fancy words from me, I just tell it like it is.
So, this Monaco team, they got some fellas, real strong fellas I hear. And Nantes, well, they ain’t no slouches either. They got their own bunch of tough guys ready to kick that ball. They played each other a few times, I think. I can’t keep track of all the games, too many for this old lady’s head, you know?
The game was on May 19, 2024, I think. Folks were yellin’ and cheerin’ for their teams. Monaco, they got some fellas with names I can’t even pronounce. Sounded like a bunch of gibberish to me, but boy, can they run! Nantes, they had their own stars too. I heard someone shoutin’ about some fella named Mohamed or somethin’ like that. He scored a goal, real quick, they said. Five minutes into the game, bam! Goal!
Then, another one, not too long after. This Castelletto fella, he scored, with help from some other guy, Bamba, I think his name was. Fifteen minutes in, and Nantes was already up two to nothin’! Folks were goin’ wild, especially the Nantes fans.
- Monaco, they were tryin’ hard, runnin’ around like chickens with their heads cut off.
- Nantes, they were tough, they were fightin’ for every ball.
- The crowd was loud, real loud. I could hear ‘em from a mile away, or maybe it was just the TV, I don’t know.
I don’t know all the fancy details, ya know? Like, who was playin’ where and what formations they used. That’s all hogwash to me. I just know they were kickin’ that ball and tryin’ to score. And Nantes, they were doin’ a better job of it, at least at the start.
They played at a place called Stade de la Beaujoire, or somethin’ like that. Sounded all French and fancy to me. It’s in Nantes, so I guess that makes sense. They got all these commentators talkin’ a mile a minute, usin’ words I ain’t never heard before. “Live text commentary,” they called it. Sounded like a whole lotta nothin’ to me. I like watchin’ the game, not listenin’ to some fella babble on.
I heard someone say that they keep track of who starts the game, the “starting lineups” they call it. And they even keep track of who gets switched out, the “subs,” or something like that. Seems like a lot of work to me. Can’t they just play the game and be done with it?
Anyways, Monaco and Nantes, they got a history. They played each other before. And they’ll probably play each other again. It’s always a good match, I guess. Folks get all riled up, cheerin’ for their teams. Me? I just like watchin’ the fellas run around. Reminds me of my chickens back home, always peckin’ and chasin’ each other.
So, that’s the gist of it. Monaco versus Nantes. May 19, 2024. Nantes scored early, Monaco tried to catch up. Lots of runnin’, lots of yellin’, and a whole lotta folks havin’ a good time. That’s all there is to it, really.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed my chickens. They’re probably gettin’ restless by now.
