Park Ju-Young assisted the opening goal vs. St. Etienne with a through ball to Nimani. "superbe passe de park au passage!" from ASM Forums.
Park Ju-Young gets his second assist of the night as Mollo scores in injury time to level with St. Etienne. 2-2.

is park ju-young playing as a shadow/support striker? i'm not familiar with the term, so just wondering.
He's been put in just about every position in the forward line this season. To me, he plays best as a withdrawn attacker ("in the hole") behind one or two forwards but he's been most commonly used as the target man in attack as well as on the right wing. He's a bit quixotic when it comes to positioning as he likes to break the offside trap often (due to his good sense of timing and awareness and great acceleration) but looks uncomfortable in pushing up too high sometimes.
are you sure he scored?? http://soccernet.espn.go.com/match?id=261528&cc=5901&league=FRA.COUPE_DE_FRANCE
He played the full match as his team came from a 1-0 deficit to beat toulouse 3-2 in the end. He needs to score, as he's getting a lot of playing time.
To be fair, he went straight from K-League to Monaco this season without any break. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he has been fatigued for awhile. Having said that, yes, he needs to score, but he a very good job of getting his teammates involved in the attack. He was involved in the second goal yesterday and, arguably, the third.
I'm putting the goal up on my YouTube account. Hold on just a sec... And here we go: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKLRHi3RjR8"]YouTube - Park Ju-Young | AS Monaco v. Nancy | 3.21.09[/ame]
