The match was rich in opportunities with numerous changes of situation and a score of 6 goals. At the Stade Louis II, Monaco, after being behind, managed to reverse the trend. However, PSG was able to regain control of the match and win. This meeting was also marked by Donnarumma’s facial injury.
PSG beat Monaco 4-2, consolidating their first place in Ligue 1 with 40 points, 10 points ahead of Olympique Marseille and Monaco. Lille could still be ahead of Monaco at the end of this day.
The match was punctuated by several controversial decisions by referee François Letexier. Gianluigi Donnarumma received a violent blow to the face from Singo, who was not sent off despite the seriousness of the intervention.
PSG opened the scoring thanks to Doué in the 24th minute, but in the second half, AS Monaco surprised with two goals in a few minutes. Ben Seghir equalized from the penalty spot in the 53rd, followed by a double from Breel Embolo in the 60th. Ousmane Dembélé restored the balance in the 64th minute.
Camara appeared to risk a second yellow card, but Letexier chose not to punish him. After the entry of Gonçalo Ramos, PSG scored 3-2 in the 83rd minute. Dembélé then sealed the score at the end of the match with a 4-2. Despite some refereeing decisions favorable to Monaco, PSG managed to win and maintain their lead in the standings.
