Honoured to make my debut today for @AS_Monaco today! Great feeling to get the full 90 minutes and a clean sheet in tough circumstances. Hoping to push on more from here! #GodIsGreat pic.twitter.com/upCXDvQcnm— Jonathan Panzo (@J_Panzoo) December 19, 2018

It was a testing match for the youngsters with the game halted briefly due to a flooded pitch, but in the end they emerged victorious.Panzo could have recorded an assist but saw a fine cross wasted as his raking ball from the left flank resulted in an excellent one-on-one save by Lorient goalkeeper Danijel Petkovic.2

The cup clash was played in wet condition after a storm hit the region.

Now Panzo – who was a member of Englands Under-17 World Cup winning side in 2017 – is under consideration for the Monaco first-team, he will feel his decision to move has been vindicated.In August, he told The Sun: I wanted to settle down somewhere instead of going back and forth, back and forth.I thought settling down somewhere would be better for me as a young player, to get comfortable there and do my thing. I just had to be a bit strong and confident in my abilities to expose myself to the world.
