PARIS (Reuters) - Struggling Monaco’s 5-1 home defeat against Strasbourg on Saturday left Thierry Henry fuming, with the coach seen insulting an opposing player and lashing out at a malfunction of the Video Assistant Refereeing (VAR) system.

Television footage showed the former France international making an abusive remark to a Strasbourg player as the visitors showed no mercy in routing Monaco, who were reduced to 10 men after the dismissal of Naldo in the seventh minute.
