In the race to remain in Ligue 1, ASSE obtained a point on the AJA pitch this Friday evening. The Greens' competitors are playing this weekend. This is the case of Rennes who traveled to Monaco at 5 p.m. Back to the meeting.
AS Monaco won in a spectacular match against Stade Rennais (3-2) on the 19th day of Ligue 1, at the end of a match full of twists and turns. From the start, the Monegasques showed their offensive intentions and opened the scoring thanks to a nice goal from Maghnes Akliouche in the 15th minute. This ideal start put Rennes under pressure, and despite a few Breton opportunities, Monaco held on in the first half.
Just after the break, Adi Hütter's men showed clinical realism. Marcus Biereth doubled the lead in the 52nd minute, before Aleksandr Golovin scored Monaco's third goal four minutes later (56'). At that point, the ASM seemed to have done the hardest part. However, Rennes has not given up. In added time of the first half, Nagida gave the visitors hope by reducing the gap (45'+1), then Amine Gouiri, faithful to his efficiency, scored in the 67th minute to completely restart the match.
The end of the match was marked by high intensity, with Rennais trying everything to equalize. Monaco, solid defensively in the final minutes, resisted repeated assaults from the Bretons. The match ended after 6 minutes of added time, confirming a valuable victory for ASM.
-Thanks to this success, the Monegasques consolidate their position in the fight for Europe, demonstrating their ability to respond in high-intensity encounters. Rennes is bogged down in the crisis and remains behind ASSE which gains a place. Rennes will surpass Geoffroy Guichard in 15 days after receiving Strasbourg.
