With Lens and Lorient’s excellent start to the season, Monaco has no room for error to go the distance. The Monegasques had the obligation to win this meeting against a team from the soft belly of Ligue 1. The rookie Embolo showed the way by scoring his fourth goal of the season in the league. The Swiss is already proving to be indispensable in Philippe Clément’s squad, which retains its fifth place and comes back to within 3 points of OM. Myron Boadu folded the game ten minutes from time to definitively give the Monegasques victory. The Dutch striker scored his first goal of the season. For its part, Montpellier is 10th and is treading water. The dream of a return to the European Cup seems far away for the Paillade club. Monaco will host Clermont on the next day while Montpellier will go to Lens.
