In the early morning of April 16, Beijing time, a focus match in the 32nd round of Ligue 1, Rennes played monaco at home. As a result, after 90 minutes of fighting, Monaco achieved a 3-2 reversal and finally won the game after falling behind for a while. For Monaco, victory in this competition was crucial, which rekindled their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League.
Last season, Monaco performed well under Kovac, finishing 3rd in the league. However, Monaco started the season badly, failing to win the first three rounds. Coupled with the exit from the Champions League qualification round, this has disappointed monaco fans.
Monaco's total value has reached 350 million, and its strength in Ligue 1 is definitely not in the middle and lower reaches of the level. In January of this year, the club finally shook its heart and fired Kovac. After the arrival of Belgian coach Clement, the team's performance has improved significantly.
At the end of last month, when facing The Greater Paris, Monaco scored a 3-0 clean sheet, which embarrassed the Ligue 1 overlords. With the momentum of the great victory over Paris, Monaco has also made great progress. After winning the game in the early hours of this morning, Monaco also won four consecutive victories in Ligue 1.
Rennes have no hope of winning the title this season, but they also have the potential to hit the Champions League qualification. Before the game, Rennes actually had a six-point advantage over Monaco. As long as the early morning game is won, Rennes can extend the advantage to 9 points, which can almost be said to lock in Champions League qualification. However, the defeat in the early morning game disrupted the team's overall plan.
In this game, rennes actually had a very smooth start. In the 3rd minute, Tate's header burst through the bar to give Rennes a 1-0 lead. On the Monaco side, soon it was still in color. In the 12th minute, Wan Desong inserted a pumping shot from the far corner on the right and the two sides returned to the same running line 1-1.
Back in the second half, Ben Yedder had a one-handed chance to score the ball firmly, at which point Monaco achieved a comeback and the score came to 2-1. In the 77th minute of the match, Boado pushed in front of the goal and Monaco took a 3-1 advantage. In the final moments of the game, although Tyrrier relied on penalties to close the score, it was too late.
In the end, the match was over, and Monaco won the match 3-2, which was a key battle for Champions League qualification. Monaco has won the last 4 rounds, including making Greater Paris the backdrop. Monaco's momentum is strong at the momentum, and given Rennes' unstable form, the former is more likely to qualify for the Champions League next season in Ligue 1.
