Forum:Face-off counter trap eff help!

Hi, my friend had a face-down spirit reaper and i attacked it which it got flipped. In response to that flip I activated face-off which says that monster effects will be negated, but my friend keeps crying about that it is a continues effect so nothing happens. Even though then spirit reapers own effect says when a card effect resolves that targets that card it gets destroyed anyways. So is my friend right or am I?
