Maghnes Akliouche - UCL debut results in goal Akliouche scored one goal during Monaco's 2-1 win Thursday against Barcelona.

Impact Akliouche recently logged his UCL debut and made a significant impact, scoring the Monaco team's first goal of its European campaign this season. Monaco's 2023-24 season included him breaking out with seven goals in Ligue 1. Akliouche was one of five players during that campaign to score that many goals in domestic-league action for Monaco, and now that most of the five are not with Monaco, expectations are high for him to step up his scoring in all competitions. In that regard, he is off to a strong start.
