Monaco have secured their first win of the new Ligue 1 season with a thrilling victory over Nantes on Saturday. The match was a closely contested affair, with both teams creating numerous opportunities to score.
In the 84th minute, however, it was Ben Yedder who broke the deadlock for Monaco. The French striker, who has been in impressive form this season, found himself in the perfect position to strike from close range and put his side ahead.
The goal proved to be the turning point of the game as Monaco continued to dominate possession and create more chances. They were eventually rewarded when Benjamin Mendy scored in the 92nd minute to secure a 2-0 victory for the home team.
It was a well-deserved victory for Monaco, who had struggled against some tough opposition in recent weeks. However, they will need to improve if they hope to maintain their lead at the top of the table. With only three games remaining, there is still plenty of football left to play and a lot can change in a short space of time.
Overall, though, it was a good day for Monaco and their fans, who saw their side earn a hard-fought victory that sets them up nicely for the rest of the season.
