Monaco is just two points from the podium. Winning 2-0 in Montpellier on Sunday, Philippe Clément’s men have chained their fifth consecutive victory and are just two points behind third, Lorient, who goes to Brest.
The ASM, very realistic, owes the victory to Embolo, author of a volley in the recovery time of the first period (45 ° + 1), before Boadu, on the verge of offside, doubled the bet for the club of the principality (80th).
Successful entry of Boadu
Efficient, Monaco manages to surprise the Hérault defense, the victim of some oversights. In a first period closed with a padlock, Embolo had found the key but the ASM had not created many opportunities, such as Montpellier which above all ruined two counter-attacks started by center forward Elye Wahi (35 °, 45 °) and ended badly.
In a second half, equally undecided, Ben Yedder, served by Camara, spoils a duel against Omlin (73 °), before Boadu, who entered the field in place of Embolo, managed the break undergoing a cross from Henrique (80 °), to prolong the beautiful Monegasque autumn.
For Montpellier, if the players have shown seriousness, they could not prevent their club’s sixth defeat in ten games. If MHSC holds 10th place temporarily, he may be worried before facing three very complicated fights against Lens, Lyon and Rennes.
