Buts : Abline (12e) and Amian (56e) for Nantes // Embolo (51e) and Salisu (59e) for Monaco.
The Canaries stumble on the Rock.
At the opening of the 17e day of Ligue 1, FC Nantes thought they had a very good victory against AS Monaco at La Beaujoire after leading 2-0, but the Nantes club was caught in the second period and had to settle for a draw . Antoine Kombouaré’s men opened the scoring in the 12the minute thanks to Matthis Abline, already a scorer in the draw in Lille last weekend, served behind by Sorba Thomas (1-0, 12e). The Welshman gave himself a second assist when Nantes doubled the lead after returning from the locker room with a goal from Kelvin Amian (2-0, 46e).
Monegasque surge
The second period therefore seemed to be off to a bad start for Monaco, but Adi Hütter’s team did not think for long and reduced the score, then equalized in fifteen minutes. First thanks to Breel Embolo, who is well ahead of Pallois and concludes with a strike into the opposite net (2-1, 56e)then by Mohammed Salisu. From a corner, Anthony Lopes comes out, but gets completely holed and lets the Ghanaian put his head into the empty goal (2-2, 59e). In the last ten minutes, the match could have turned on both sides: Pallois saved his team from defeat by being placed on the line on Embolo’s strike, before his teammate Moses Simon found the crossbar on the next action.
OM, Lille and Lyon are already rubbing their hands.
