PARIS (AP) — Monaco kept a rare clean sheet but could not score in a 0-0 draw at Le Havre in Ligue 1 on Saturday.

Mid-table Monaco leaked goals in losing seven of the past eight league games, and hammered 6-1 at Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday. The club’s Ultras have stopped encouraging the players during games and want chief executive Thiago Scuro to leave amid reported concerns over last summer’s transfer deals and physical preparation.

The performance was more disciplined this time but Monaco’s injury problems mounted.

Central defender Wout Faes, who only just joined on loan from Leicester as cover for Mohammed Salisu, limped off with a left ankle injury in the 29th minute. He was replaced by former Tottenham and Bayern Munich defender Eric Dier, who was injured and replaced by Jordan Teze in the 70th.
