Monaco's troubles continued as they lost 2-0 at Ligue 1 relegation rivals Dijon in their first match since Thierry Henry's departure and the return of Leonardo Jardim.
The principality club fell behind in the 24th minute when Kwon Chang-hoon slotted home, and were subsequently reduced to 10 men around the hour mark as Naldo, following a challenge on Julio Tavares, was sent off for the second successive league game.
Dijon then extended their lead in the 69th minute, Naim Sliti firing in after Tavares dispossessed Fode Toure.
Jardim, a day on from being reappointed as boss following Henry's exit, watched on from the stands at the Stade Gaston Gerard, with caretaker Franck Passi in the dugout.
