ASM will play Champions League
Monaco he will be part of the European elite next season. The Principality club confirmed their qualification for the Champions League by winning on the field of Montpellier this Sunday, on the 33rd and last day of Ligue 1 (0-2). Dolphins from PSG, Adi Hütter’s men won at La Mosson thanks to a goal from young Kassoum Ouattara (the first in his career) and another from Youssouf Fofana. Thanks to this success, the Rocher players are now guaranteed to finish in the top three. Enough to calmly look forward to the final day of the competition when they host Nantes.
Lost goes up to the podium
Guaranteed to be upheld, the Canaries come to challenge the ASM after being beaten last Sunday the Burnt (1-2). Largely dominating at La Beaujoire, Lille put in a very good performance thanks to a double from Jonathan David at the start of the game. The Canadian centre-forward put air on the stadium in three minutes (8th, 11th), before Matthis Abline reduced the score in the second half. A success that allows Paulo Fonseca’s players to take third place, directly qualified for the C1, ahead of Stade Brestois. A precious place that the Mastiffs will try to keep next week against Nice, who will host PSG at the end of the game (this Wednesday at 9pm). Probably without their goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, who seems to have badly injured his knee.
Lens, OL and OM in the fight
In the race for European qualification, RC Lens lost a good opportunity on the pitch at Stade Rennais (1-1). After leading the score for a long time thanks to a strike from Angelo Fulgini, the Sang et Or was caught by a goal from Ibrahim Salah in the 82nd minute. In sixth place, Franck Haise’s players (who can no longer enter the top 5) are almost qualified for the Conference League. A place they will try to keep on the last day against Montpellier.
To achieve this, they must stay ahead of OL, who have the same number of points but a significantly worse goal difference (-8 against +7). While they host Strasbourg next Sunday, the Gones are still in the game after their victory in Clermont (0-1), officially relegated to Ligue 2. Pierre Sage’s players won there the Auvergne with the visit of Orel Mangala.
The Lyonnais find themselves in front of OM, who dominated Lorient at the Vélodrome, with a double from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and a goal from Samuel Gigot (3-1). Marseille, in eighth place, are temporarily 3 points behind Lens and OL, while they wait for their late game in Reims (this Wednesday at 9pm). Jean-Louis Gasset’s players will travel to Le Havre to end their campaign, knowing that seventh place could qualify for the Conference League depending on the result of the Coupe de France final between PSG and OL, scheduled for May 25th.
