Latest update:

AS Monaco did not manage to win when they visited Olympique Lyon. Wissam Ben Yedder gave Monaco the lead in the first minute, after which Alexandre Lacazette and Saïd Benrahma put things in order for Lyon. After an hour of play, Ben Yedder scored his second, but Monaco's title chances finally disappeared in the final phase due to Malick Fofana's winning goal. With the defeat of Monaco, Paris Saint-Germain is officially champion.

Particularities:

The starting signal had barely sounded when Ben Yedder gave his team the lead. He outsmarted everyone with a tap-in at the far post. A long VAR check also no longer threw a spanner in the works for the small striker.

Halfway through the first half the match suddenly turned completely around. Lacazette turned in Benrahma's cross. A few minutes later it was Benrahma himself who made it 2-1.

After an hour of play, Ben Yedder made it exciting again by neatly putting in a cross. Five minutes before the end, however, it was Lyon who took the win. Face to face with the goalkeeper, Fofana remained cool and finished calmly. With three games to go, Paris Saint-Germain can no longer catch up and can call themselves champions of France.

Olympique Lyon – AS Monaco 3-2

1' 0-1 Wissam Ben Yedder
22' 1-1 Saïd Benrahma
26' 2-1 Alexandre Lacazette
